This picture spoke to me today. I am trying to find a positive attitude. I am usually a pretty positive person but sometimes like today I find myself in a not-so-positive mood. It is hard to explain. I just find myself in a funk that is hard to get out of. This doesn’t happen often, but when it does, it really does affect me. In more ways than I can count. For some reason, I turn into this different person that even I wouldn’t want to be around. When I go through this funk, I really do try to find things that I think could help me to feel better. From taking some me time to taking different strains of cannabis (that I would buy from somewhere like this breeze recreational cannabis delivery service) or maybe even talking to a medical professional are all thoughts that have crossed my mind in recent times and every time I experience these emotions, it makes me all the more determined to get to the bottom of this funk once and for all.
But these things, unfortunately, take time and I need to make sure that I’m doing it in the proper fashion so I know how to manage it going forward. It is so annoying to be in this mood and not know the true reason why. It really does make things seem much worse. As well as thinking about the above, I’ve been reading some positivity quotes to try and make myself feel better but I seem to be in a slump at the minute.
Ever wake up and find yourself in one of those moods you just can’t describe. Like you aren’t quite happy and not quite sad but somewhere in the middle. Then what makes it even worse is that you can’t figure out what put you in the mood in the first place especially since it is like first thing in the morning. That’s where I am at. I am in this funny place and just can’t explain why. I don’t know maybe I dreamed or maybe there is a situation I have going on that I am not addressing. I am thinking possibly the latter. Now I have to figure out what the situation is and I guess address it.
See I hate feeling this way because it puts me in a foul mood. Which makes me then take it out on the ones that I love. Which I don’t want to do. So my mission today is to identify this mood and get it over with. I’ve had a few of my friends suggesting that I check out the best HHC carts on online stores. They mentioned that it could help in calming my mood. I may have to give them a try as I’m constantly on the edge. I need to get myself out of this funk because I absolutely hate it. Especially when I don’t know what it is. I’m going to try my normal ways of getting out of my funk. I would love some tips for next time. It is pretty much the same things that I do to lower my stress levels that I wrote about in another post. To check out what I do to relax from stress read it here. I’m pretty sure that I am just worrying about some unnecessary things or just worrying about necessary things too much.
Additionally, I am making a lot of effort to manage stress since I have already witnessed several instances when typical stress levels have reached a point where people have been diagnosed with depression. Due to this, many people have a tendency to get dependent on substances like alcohol and narcotics that seems to help them relax and get rid of their tension and worry. However, in order to return to regular life, they have to make extra efforts by probably seeking out holistic treatment for addiction. You can now see why I am so concerned about my anxiety and stress levels.
My stress could also be because I have had a lot of things on my mind lately both personal and business. I think the main thing I am worried about is exactly where I am in my life. Not the mom and wife part but just success part. I for some reason every start a new year find myself wondering why I am not where I want to be. I always have high hopes for myself and then the question becomes am I doing all I am can to be where I want to be. I think that I just need to be more focused on the things that I want and go for them more. The thing on my mind now is to make this blog successful, be healthier, and make things better in my personal life. I’ve already shared the changes I want to make and all I have to do now is to make it happen. I think I am just afraid of being a failure and looking back on this year and finding that I have accomplished nothing. I think if I had a more positive attitude that things would be easier. Instead of thinking I can’t I should think I can or I will. That’s what I’m going to try to do. Other than that the only thing I can do now is work hard and take my prayers to god. So here it is I am going to just go with the flow and move forward.

It’s okay to acknowledge that you’re just human, too! Try to find a balance between cutting yourself some slack and yet working to identify what triggered the mood, so you can work at fixing *that*!

Exactly. I think I need to figure out what puts me in that type of mood. I really do hate them.
Ashley McLure says
I definitely know the feeling. I tend to think it’s a build up of things that have occupied my brain (even if I’m not aware of it) that are pressing down.

Yes I think that is exactly what is going on with me. Like just a build up of things that I have yet to address or put into motion.

Yes that is exactly what I am working on doing. I have to motivate myself to do better.

So many of us (moms, especially) feel just like you. We give up SO MUCH to be moms, and while that is so incredibly important, it is very easy to lose a bit of who we are. I work part-time but still wonder about that full-time gig I gave up. It came with the title and money I wanted, and I was in that position for a whopping few months before leaving to be Mom. I struggle often with what I COULD have done or SHOULD have done. But I’m also so happy with the relationship I have with Amelia and the time I’ve been able to put in with her. Such an internal battle! We all do what we can. And yes, doing it with a smile is a great plan!

Yes I am so glad that you and others seem to understand where I am coming from it is so hard to be yourself and to be what you need to be for your family. I am honestly working on it. It is definitely a work in progress.
