The battle I won 

Life can get so busy. I worked 10 hours today… between my full time job and my part time job. Some may say that 10 hours isn’t a lot … that it could have been a lot more. They’re right, it could have been. 

I spend 8 hours at a desk and on the computer. Then I have half an hour to get to my part time job; working with teens who have special needs. The fact that I can juggle both is completely mind boggling to me. For the longest time I couldn’t keep a part time job. But look at me now… working two jobs. That’s a big “screw you” to both my anxiety and my depression. 

I sit here, drinking green tea, unwinding from a long week. I guess what I’m trying to say is, don’t give up. Even when you think you have nothing left and you’re angry and tired. I wanted to quit last week but I didn’t. I leaned on my family and my friends and they helped me get through the darkness. 

Reach out and ask for help. Keep fighting…don’t give up.
