Moving House when suffering with your Mental Health

You may have noticed that I’ve been a little absent on my blog lately. I tried to keep up with Blogtober but found I was falling behind answering your comments and reading other’s blogs. As I felt my mental health begin to spiral out of control I knew I needed to take a break from […]

Writing a Letter to my Future Self

I’ve seen other people post these blogs posts in which they write a letter to their future self. Whilst I’m struggling with my mental health I thought it would be a good time to write a letter. I’m often guilty of putting too much pressure on myself and so I want my future self to […]

Mental Health Q&A

I’ve completed lots of Q&As before but I’ve never done one that solely focuses on my mental health and so I thought I would give it a go. I hope I answered all of your questions – if not ask me in the comments at the end! Do you have any rituals or objects that […]

Weekly Update (7th October – 13th October) Up-cycling and a trip to Wales

I would like to apologise in advance for how long this post is! We went up to Wales this weekend, however I knew we were not going to be doing much and so I thought I would include it in my weekly update. I’ve struggled a lot this week with stress and it’s had a […]

Goals for 2020 – Blogtober #13

With the new year fast approaching I thought I would take some time to sit down and decide what I want to achieve in 2020. I’ve had a lot of ups and downs during 2019 but I finally feel like I’ve turned a corner by reaching out for some help. Now that I am on […]

World Mental Health Day – Living Life with Anxiety and Emetophobia – Blogtober #10

The 10th October 2019 marks World Mental Health Day and so for today’s post I thought I would share my mental health story with you. If you’ve been following my blog for a while you may already know my story, however I felt like today would be a good day to share it again, especially […]

My first 5 Mental Health Posts – Blogtober #6

If you haven’t been following my blog from the begining then you may not have seen some of my firsts posts discussing my mental health. When I first started blogging my anxiety was severe and I was also suffering with depression. I thought today I would share with you some of my original posts so […]

Autumn Date Ideas (AD)

Autumn’s weather can be unpredictable and sometimes a little disappointing, however that does not have to stop you from enjoying a date (or two!). Those cold, dark nights are the perfect romantic backdrop for a relationship to blossom. The cold weather brings about thoughts of cozying up on the sofa with blankets, hot tipples and […]

Mental Health Update (I Saw A Mental Health Nurse)

On Tuesday 27th August I had an appointment with the mental health nurse at my surgery. It had taken about 6 weeks for that appointment to come through. The appointment wasn’t until 2:30pm and so I had all morning to worry about it. I felt that there was a lot of pressure on this appointment […]

A month of self care

It’s safe to say that here in England we’ve had a rather rubbish summer and I think it’s been the same for most of the world. Summer is my favourite season for a number of reasons. I enjoy the sun and sitting outside for ten minutes reading a book is a real treat, in addition […]
