Some how, Saturday just doesn't feel the same as it used to.

“I have no idea how to post about this but I feel like I should.

We are living through a global pandemic. Life has changed in ways nobody predicted and we couldn’t have imagined even at the start of 2020.

Many of us have been ill. Far too many have lost loved ones. We have not been able to seek the comfort of spending time with those we love.

At the start of 2020 my mental health was likely already on a shoogly peg and the massive increase in workload coupled with trying to be a perfect parent, on the back of three general elections and the mess that is Brexit meant I needed a break so badly to recover from it all.

I don’t have a job where it’s possible to take time off. At least without feeling guilty. I have been working full time since I was 19 and I’ve never been signed off.

This summer I have needed that time. I have been so grateful for the support from the SNP Westminster team, from our First Minister, from politicians of all parties, from my wonderful staff and from so many constituents.

It is unusual for a politician, or anyone in the public eye, to talk about their mental health issues. Only a break and antidepressants has got me to this level of recovery.

The worst thing was the lack of energy. Some days I couldn’t find the energy to get off the sofa. I felt so sad and worried all of the time. Eventually I was diagnosed with moderate depression.

I’ve also been more introverted than ever before. I usually love the company of others but I’ve found it so tiring to spend time with people this summer.

I’m not yet better. I am much better than I was but not back to my usual enthusiastic, optimistic self. Recovery is a really slow process, especially in the midst of a pandemic.

If you’re in the same situation I am, or in a worse place, please keep working with your medical professionals. If your antidepressants are not working or are causing side effects, go back to your GP who can prescribe an alternative.

This is a long road for all of us. Please know that you are not alone. It is okay to not be okay.”-Kristy Blackman.

It’s a TumblrTour. Certainly not a Magical tour. But if you don’t watch it, it will always be a Mystery Tour. So step right this way ...

Every time my dad goes to the store he asks if I want something and I always say hi-chews and he would come back with a small ziploc bag of it. I always figured that he just tossed away the package bc of COVID you know. But today he gave me a giant fucking bag of hi chews with like 1/5 of the bag full and now I have trust issues.

Bonjour tout le monde🌞 Je vous souhaite une autre belle journée ramadanesque.🌈 Lorsque je vois mes ami(e)s etrangers à cause du covid ont instinctivement changé leur maniere de travailler et leur plans comme si le Covid sera une realité qui vivra pour le temps avec nous.lorsque je vois la chute des actions dans Les marchés financiers et les brokers qui n'ont plus le temps d'aller pisser pour quelques minutes de peur que les valeurs changent. Lorsque je vois que Les plans des nouveaux methodes de travail sont deja mis à l'oeuvre partout dans les pays developpés et Les strategies pour le future sont mis à point pour les emplois du future.lorsque je vois tout ca je sens qu'un très grand séisme economique qui s'approche de nous!Nous? Oh pauvre nous! Nous sommes concentrés sur Les feuilletons de S.Fehri ,on ne rate pas une épisode et à la fin de chaque episode ,sur Facebook ,on ne cesse de l' insulter comme tjrs mais on regarde aussi !et on critique les series poubelles dites comedienne ou supposé l être alors que le monde par en fusée vers l'economie digitale Nos politiciens ont d'autres propos chose est sûr. #pense #plan #future #economy #lifeduringcorona #powerstroke #mindsetcoach (at Tunisia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_rgspBFwqa/?igshid=i0ql7ojqvmj4
