I'm Back and Still "Swimming"!
Hi everyone! So I have been M.I.A. for a little bit here due to tons of construction going on at my house! Along with all the house renovations and very BIG financial obligations that go along with it, I have an anxiety disorder and it has REALLY been affecting me lately. Just trying to get things done in a timely matter and making sure I have the funds to do it, all while working a full time job and taking care of the everyday life responsibilities, I am exhausted, stressed to the MAX, and just trying to make it through the day without having an anxiety attack or worse a panic attack.
When I get stressed like this I try to take my mind off of the things that are causing me this anxiety...most of the time its watching movies; something I don't have to think about and just watch. My niece's favorite movie is "Finding Nemo" and they love singing the "Just keep swimming" song; so I watched that movie. It might sound silly but that kids disney movie just gave me my motivation back! This past week whatever obstacles I have been facing I have just been telling myself "just keep swimming Ange, it's worth it...all of it". A small song like that made the biggest difference in my mood!
I am taking it slow here on WA with my training only because I want to understand better when I do these courses and check off my tasks and at the moment I have a lot of distractions going on. I know each day I get further and further with my house and it is making easier to make time for WA.
So again, I am Back! And I am Still Swimming and no Large Obstacle in this Beautiful Ocean can stop me!

Hi there, I agree 100% with you....stress within life can get you down--it makes me exhausted. Yet, I find something to get my spirits up and move foward. But one thing, we are all swimming in that same beautiful ocean right along with you....helping each other along the way.
Keep your head up...things will get better.
