A possible Future Older version of Me

Image
  On September 5, 2023 I decided to write about an important post about when my husband and I had a really nice walk on a Beach Trail by the lake in our city H. we are currently living, and of course I took lots of pictures, as I wanted to have a memory of it to look back on as I knew this would be the last week for awhile that I would be together with my sweet hubby before I go to H.W. for treatment on Sept. 11, 2023. Though I was still having my Mental and Gut troubles – I still wanted to enjoy as much time as I could with my sweet hubby.   So that’s why we figured it would be good for us to go by the lake and enjoy the beauty that was out there, as I find when we go out for walks together it often relaxes me, as being with and around my hubby puts me in a happy place 😊 . So while we were going for a walk we kept seeing this older lady who was walking and taking lots of picture like me 😊 So my Sweetness, which I sometimes call my husband & I imagined that she cou...

God won't leave me in my struggles, as He can speak through Others

  On September 1, 2023 I decided to write about an important post about when I was messaging my hubby while I was still at my Mom’s place saying that I was Super Crazy Struggling Mentally.   It super brought me down, and I didn’t know if I could make it through the day as the darkness was so unbelievably strong.   It was putting me way over the edge today 😞 .   I think the enemy may have been taking advantage of me being alone so to speak, as my Mom was on her vacation, and my hubby hadn’t picked me up yet.   Sure my brother J. was home, but he’s not the type to try to be supportive, as he’s the one who’s always looking to be helped.   So I felt so trapped and alone inside of myself.   It really is terrifying when the darkness is so strong that it feels like it’s suffocating you and you see no way out 😞 .   After I message My hubby, he said to me to just keep in touch babes, and he’ll be there before I know it 😘 I said “I know” Then m...

Connections to First Loves

Image
  I decided to write an important post on August 31, 2023 of what went on that day.   So I decided I'd take an Uber with Mom to the Airport since Mom is going away for a couple weeks, and I felt like since she's done soooo much for me, and I've connected with her so much more over these past 3 months that I wanted to say by at the airport.  It was so good that the disconnection I used to have with her, was a lot less strong, which is great 😃 . But that also meant I was going to really miss her, because not only is she gone until Sept.11, which is the day I go into H.W., it means I won't see Mom for awhile, plus after going to the program for 4 months, I’ll be going back with my hubby and not my mom. So not having it where I see Mom each day will make me sad, as to deciding to go with Mom in an Uber, so I could say goodbye to her at the airport, so for sure will miss her ❤️ . I really had a good time coming home from the airport and having fun and being Excited ab...

Working through my mood for the better with God

Image
  On August 30, 2023 I decided to write about an important post about how my mood had been pretty bad as it seemed with over doing it with the food yesterday, which took a toll on my mind. I was able to get myself to volunteer with the Foodbank that my Mom volunteered at, but I have to admit that it was still quite difficult at the beginning - but being distracted and working on organizing everything there helped me. I was thinking that not seeing the people I got close to at the Foodbank as well as the Church both because I’m going to H.W. ED program, but also because I won’t be in the same city when I come back, as I’ll be back with my hubby again and we don’t get out to the city all that often. So that is going to be hard, as I've gotten attached to them. But that just means that the visits to the Church and Foodbanks would be more meaningful. At on point when I got home, my mental & gut state was so brutal - I couldn't keep it in and I just cried in physical ...

Asking for a Clear Sign from God about Treatment

Image
  This important post is about what went on both August 28& 29, 2023 in regards to in-patient ED Program I was trying to get into. On August 28, 2023 I decided to check in with both the city Hospital and also H.W. ED in-patient Programs to see where I was at with my applications. At first both of them weren't sure when they would get back to me, when suddenly I got two phone calls back to back from both of them. I heard that the cancelation for an assessment with the city ED program was available so that I could get that done tomorrow online with one of the psychiatrists   - which if I got accepted I would likely get into the in-patient program likely within the next month. Then I got a phone call that I was accepted with H.W. in-patient ED Program - so I knew they would also be within the month also - but still wanted to know more about the program and see if there was an OHIP bed available so I also had a phone call with H.W. ED Prog. the next day right after the...

Tucking in a pillow brought about unexpected caring

Image
  On August 27, 2023 I decided to write about an important post about when I was making my bed at my Mom's place in my old room, when I realized unintentionally that I tucked in my little Patricia Affirmation pillow that it was like I was tucking a little Patricia in, which was sweet. It kinda hit me more than I had expected with my feelings, as I suddenly felt for the little young woman on the pillow as it looked kinda like me, which caused me to want to care for her/me ❤️ . I know I don't treat myself kindly most of the time, but it was nice to see "myself" as that little Pillow that I want to take care of. When I thought about hitting a pillow as some people would do that if they were really upset or angry, I realized that I didn’t want to do that.   Well that’s not true I actually did do it once, but I said “I’m sorry” after as I felt like I was hurting this little person/myself.   I know that deep in me I don’t actually want to hurt myself – but because...
