New Year, New Me!

I am going through a lot of positive changes. My life will, eventually be what I I need it to be. I am learning to love myself MUCH more. I will try more to avoid situations that cause me anxiety. I will NOT be ashamed and guilt ridden. I will take this Partial Hospitalization Program EXTREMELY seriously. I am going to continue devoting myself to self care, self love, and fighting my immense insecurity. I am a strong woman. I have been through enough to know true contentment only exists when you are only focused on the current moment. I am ready for the road ahead. The Hospitalization scared me. I came in feeling insane, weak, dehydrated, and malnourished. I know not to say never. But I am going to motivate myself to love life, and my close friends and family. I just need to work on myself.

Millennials and the Elderly

At the hospital, the other patients  and I had the luxury of playing Cards Against Humanity, with two elderly patients. One wa s hysterical, picking the filthiest cards. I think more people our age need engage with the elderly. Yes, some are stereotypical uptight grandparents. But not all.
This experience not only fun, but a great learning experience!

I soak in your words,
Your actions,
Your actions,
Your body language.
I don't want to care this much.
It's scary.
Paralyzing.
Overwhelming.
Evokes extreme emotion.
We don't want to be
So sensitive, so raw.
Even crowds can make us anxious.
We love too much,
Hurt to the bone.
We cannot handle such excruciating pain.
