My Mental Health, My Journey

So, a while back on Facebook to family and friends I mentioned that I would share what has been happening with me and why I stepped away from social media for the last few months. I tend to do this every once in a while but for the first time there was a legitimate need to step away for my own sanity. I have been making some positive changes and I now feel totally comfortable sharing it with everyone. Especially since I have challenged myself to be more open and honest with my feelings and my struggles. 

Some would probably ask - Why do you feel the need to share your experience on your social media? Well my answer is simple – to help others who may find themselves feeling how I feel and provide them one perspective of how to deal with it.

I’m not saying how I handled my depression and increasing anxiety the last few months is the right and only way but the way I dealt with it helped and it is an option. What works for me may not work for everyone but it doesn’t hurt to looks at people’s experiences. So I will now share my experience. It's a bit long but hopefully you'll read enough to get an idea. If you want of course.
