Autumn of 2013 isn’t a time I talk about much. It was when my mental health was the worst it had ever been. I was anxious all the time and the only way I could think of to cope was to lose weight. A lot of weight. While I showed social media that I did it the right way by exercising often and eating healthier I really did not do it the right way. I couldn’t control my mind so I obsessed over my looks.
There is no reason for me to be anxious. I get it. I agree.
But sometimes it just happens.
Mental illness comes back out of nowhere.
I wish that everyone had the fortune of taking a month off work to travel. Or even a week. And it wouldn’t have to be some huge trip to Australia like I had. It could be to a city that is just a few hours away by car. I just wish that everyone could get away from the “real world” for a short while. Take a mental health vacation.
Everyone has bad days. It is human nature. Nothing is perfect. Well, maybe not everyone has bad days. I believe some people are good at having a bad moment or multiple bad moments in a day and still going to bed thinking they had a good day, or a decent day, or just a day but not a bad one.
