As lovely as my nails look, you can actually see how puffy my eyes are. This week has been hell mentally, emotionally and physically. It always feels like I’m taking one step forward then two steps back. Just when I think I’m improving mentally, I suffer a bout of anxiety which of course affects me physically. I end up crying from the pain I feel physically and mentally. It’s so difficult to switch my brain off that I end up napping through the day as opposed to sleeping during the night. And then the seizures begin. I dragged myself to a gig last night nowhere near recovery because I was desperate to get out of the house. I got my nails done today because I just needed to do something nice for my body. I have to believe that there will be better days. I can not afford to not believe anymore. I can not afford to not have anything to live for anymore. Just taking it one step at a time #mentalhealth #chronicillness #scaredforthefuture #scaredfortoday #scaredfortomorrow #hopeful https://www.instagram.com/p/BtBCT4QHZdU/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ngzzzo09o559
