I’m tired and it’s only Tuesday😩 I woke up not too long ago from a delirious dream about helping Ryan, the telepathic kid from Smallville.. 🤷‍♀️

I’ve been delivering training for content editors this week. While I’ve enjoyed it, my anxiety outside the sessions has been through the roof.

I find myself feeling frustrated with myself. I know it’s okay to feel anxious and sad and all the other emotions I experience each day. But I still blame myself for what feels like a loss of resilience.

In bringing my self-sabotage into focus this past year, I still manage to take away more ammunition for the next cycle of negative self-talk. I inevitably chastise myself for not living up to my own expectations and look at these ‘cracks’ as proof of my failings.

That chatter is exhausting and there are days when I don’t feel like I’ll ever be back to the ignorance of ‘normality’.

I know I’m just really tired. I’m looking forward to unwinding over the next few days. #microblogging #chocolatandmarmalade
