This year has been impossible. From a tragic death of a young family member, the death of a dear friend, issues within my marriage, coping with all that this disease has brought to our life, and watching someone you love silently suffer through depression.
My husband is in therapy, and it has helped him immensely. He started to go to get help and guidance on how to live as a caretaker of someone with a chronic illness. But every week it goes on, he goes in with a heavier heart with another dilemma to talk about. He always leaves her office feeling more grounded, and with better understanding.
This week when he went in he said she actually looked like she was going to start crying. All I could think of what a wonderful woman to have such compassion, and GREAT he broke the professional now what are we going to do.
When the world seems like it is handing you more and more you cannot handle, how do you cope? I am pretty good at picking myself up off the floor, dusting off and saying lets keep it moving. Until yesterday I was doing this very well.
Addisons disease has taught me so much about my limitations with stress, and I am getting better at calming my body into not have it revolting against me. But having this new strategy of calming myself makes me feel like I am not totally dealing with everything. That maybe I am swallowing it down for another day. To just survive this next wave of events.
I read a blog by a spiritual guru named Teal Swan. And it was exactly what I needed to hear. I will place a link on the page if anyone wants to read it. I am open to all that is coming our way and I am trying to take it with the knowledge the universe and God truly love me, and that nothing is made for me to suffer.
