For the days when everything feels too much

  Some days feel like a nightmare — full of pressure and rush. On those days I feel tired, overwhelmed, chased by tasks. It feels like my head is going to explode. Everything slips through my fingers and I lose control, unable to do anything and forced to do everything at the same time. The pressure squeezes me in a deadly hug, trying to drain all my energy and leave me barely breathing on the floor. It feels like there is a fog around me and my mind tries to see through it. Everything becomes too loud, too fast, or sometimes painfully slow. Anxiety fills my body like poison. When I feel that I’m losing the present from my sight, I try to stop and breathe. I take a small moment for myself — closing my eyes, trying to find the safe space in my soul, the refuge inside my body — and I tell myself: Everything will be fine. This will pass. You are strong enough. I try to return to the present by focusing on one task, just one thing I can do right now. Finishing that one small thi...

It is just a period

 

coffee time

I don’t know about you, but I am so sick of hearing this sentence: “It’s just a period, it will pass.”

Yes, maybe you’re right — it will pass, and maybe it really is just a period. But I feel like I’m going through period after period after period… and honestly, it’s getting a bit too much.

I’m tired of waiting for things to pass, tired of waiting for a “better time.” Don’t get me wrong — I’m not a complete pessimist. I just wish there was a break between these endless periods, so I could enjoy life a little more.

Okay, maybe I sound too negative. The truth is, I do enjoy my life. Every day I find something to be grateful for. I love my long morning walks with my little boy. I do my best to balance work, home chores, and motherhood. But still… I often catch myself wondering: “When is this going to end?” or “Why this, why now?”

When I talk with friends, I see their struggles too. I see how they’re trying to cope with life. And yet, I always feel like I’m not doing enough.

Maybe this storm in my head comes from the huge amount of work we’ve had lately. I’m grateful for it — we need to renovate the house — but I feel like I’m walking in a fog, searching for the right path or formula to balance everything, and failing my own standards every time.

It could also be because my birthday is coming up. I think most people review their life choices around that time. I’m scared that I’m missing something.

My OCD kept me in a cage for far too long. Now I’m finally learning to breathe again, destroying the obstacles around me, breaking free. I want to do more, to experience more, to truly live.

I believe the best thing to do is to stay patient, focus on the daily tasks, set a few bigger goals, and — most importantly — take care of your health. Because nothing is possible without it.

I’m open to any advice. Have a great day! <3
