There is so much I want to write about, but I just don’t have the patience and strength to get on the emotional roller coaster right now. I don’t feel settled or stable. I feel like I am grasping at straws. I keep trying to find my footing. But, everything is moving fast, and I can’t right now. I just have to give in, and let the tide take me where it will. This post is ridiculously cryptic, I know. I apologize. Maybe someday soon I will be able to put into words what is going on. But, for now, I give you this pile of nonsensical bullshit.

I am trying my best to remain calm and positive. But when you are prone to fits of anxiety, being calm and/or positive is a tall order. Anxiety sucks. I remember the days when I could breathe without thinking; when I could function without consciously telling myself to slow down and take deep breaths. I find myself longing for the security of those easy days again.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel. Why? Because there has to be.

That is where I’m at.

In other news, this song by Sara Bareilles is so beautiful. I can’t stop listening to it.

    Keep on pushin' on ๐Ÿ™‚ (I think that was a song or something but I saw it fit here) Life is tough, all you can do is focus on where you're going.
