The last few days I’ve been feeling off. Down? Maybe.. Anxious? Absolutely. Stressed? Yep. Work drained me. Jim got sick so our schedule is out of whack. I’ve felt like there’s not enough time in the day to do everything I think I should be doing. Deadlines. My cats knocked over a full glass of soda onto my just cleaned floor. I slept on the couch to try to stay away from Jims cold and woke up miserable. I thought all day it was a day earlier then it was. I hated my dinner. All tiny little things that trigger my anxiety when happening all at once. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
Here’s a strange way my anxiety and depression presents. Whenever I even feel it starting to creep in a tiny bit I get SO ANGRY at myself. Like I’ve done something wrong even when I know I haven’t. I get angry at myself for not having a plan to turn it around. Full on rage that I can’t even figure out why it’s happening. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
Usually when that happens I’ll force myself to figure it out. Plan it out. Make a list. But right now? Right now I’m choosing to just sit with myself. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
We all deal with the shit that comes with life. Big or small. Life is sometimes a bitch. And that’s fine. We get to do it all again tomorrow. Just a gentle reminder that it’s okay to not be okay. It’s okay to just stop and let your body rest. It’ll all be there in the morning. Give yourself permission to just be still if you must. ■ ⠀

HAPPY. Someone asked me the other day how I was doing and without even thinking about it, for the first time in over a year I answered “I’m happy” and it was the truth. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
For so much of 2019 I was still swimming in a pond of trying to figure out how to navigate everything that was thrown at me the day I found out about Jim’s addiction in late 2018. There were moments when I didn’t know if I would be here the next day. Moments when I wanted to end it all. Moments when I wasn’t sure we’d survive this financially. Moments when I wasn’t sure if I could eat that week. Times when I was sure our marriage wouldn’t survive his addiction or my overwhelming feeling of betrayal. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
I had struggled with anxiety and depression long before Jim picked up heroin. But I spiraled once I was faced with the fact that everything I had known for so long was just not what I thought. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
He has handled recovery with so much strength that I can’t help but be inspired by him. In a few days he will have been clean for 15 months. I’m proud of him and I’m happy for us. And while it wasn’t our finest hour. I don’t know that I’d change it. Which might sound crazy. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
The truth is it brought us closer. It made our marriage stronger. It forced me to pull strength from places I didn’t know I had. It showed me what actually mattered in this world. It showed me who my friends were.⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
Do I still have bad days? YEP. Do I still struggle? YEP. Are there weeks when I wish our bank account would be a little more flush? YEP. But at the end of each and every day I finally lay my head down proud, grateful, and happy. ⠀
■ ⠀
■ ⠀
If you love an addict, if you stay or you go, I want you to know that it will get better. There is a light at the end of the tunnel. <3 ⠀
