I’ve gone through this experience as well. I struggled with the anxiety because i didn’t have the energy to continue on my hectic path, like i was use to in life, but my mind still wanted to go…so if the mind is saying one thing and the body another…well that’s a recipe for disaster.

Most relateable article regarding this situation I’ve read on the web. Thank you for sharing…..and…..just keep on going.

Thanks for sharing your innermost feelings and thoughts. I can totally relate to what you have been through and it was a good reminder to have hope for the future during those moments when we are feeling less than confident about what lies ahead. I am also mother to three children (one of which is autistic) and we have a very challenging daily life. Today it is getting me down. I have just discovered some of your other blogs and am enjoying reading your Christian one to help me get back on track with God.

Lightening, I’m so glad you gave us a link to this. I can imagine how hard it was to write and how vulnerable you must have felt after you pushed the publish button but it is a strong and uplifting post. Thank you for sharing it.

Hi BethP - thank you for your kind words. I can fall into the “wish this wasn’t happening to me” thinking as well. I think it’s easier in hindsight to see the positives and the growth. I guess I tend to go up and down a bit with the optimism.

Thanks for sharing part of your journey…it was very inspiring and motivating.

You have such an optimistic outlook. Our family had a life crisis a couple of years back and it has been a real journey of recovery for us. It was good to be reminded that we have the opportunity for growth through these crisis (I often fall into ‘if only it hadn’t happened’ musing) and it is much more useful to see what learning you can take with you on the journey.

Thanks so much for sharing!!!
