I had an episode last night. For the last week, I have been stressed and pushing myself. Then when I got home, I had little time to relax. For days this was happening. So, when my workday became even more stressful, my body went into exhaustion. Last night I was not physically exhausted, but mentally. And so other areas were intensified. That was when the tears flowed. Suddenly, I felt lost, lonely, and so tired of everything.

It is so important that we take time for ourselves. However, you can work it out, it is vital. I have not been unhappy. Or even sad. But I have not taken any time for me to settle my mind and my emotions. I would go from work to home and from ongoing stress to ongoing stress. There was no time when I blocked out the thoughts even for a moment. It was overwhelming. Until I cracked.

I started noticing that I was on a downward slope when my body started slowing down. The irritation of everything around me grew. And then just one comment or one movement and I started to cry. The exasperation of yet another frustration was too much for my mind and body to handle.

We need to listen to our bodies. Pay attention to our minds. Understand that our physical health is connected to our mental health. It will not take much to break apart. But taking the moment to calm our thoughts is important. Had I found a space to be alone and step away to recollect my thoughts, I probably would not have had the episode. This is why I talk about focusing on you.
Special
We cannot fill their cup if ours is dry. And there is no light if your candle is burned out at both ends. You are important. And you are special. How can you be any good to others, if you are no good to yourself? Treat yourself with love. Care about your own time and health. Love yourself.
