The Urge to Run
The urge to run was bigger than the urge to stay. I had so many reasons to run. , I always thought running never solved anything until one day it did. People say leaving is the hard part but it’s not. Knowing you can never go back is one of the hardest lessons you can learn. I don’t know where it all began. I know that I am not alone in this. I am not the first girl who desperately needed a way out and I know that I wouldn’t be the last. I genuinely felt like I had to run to undo my mistake. I had to try at least. Maybe there I would like myself and finally work on my mental health. Before he died he told me that if we can feel happiness we should be grateful. The more he isn’t here the more I want to run. I always used to say that I wouldn’t leave without him but I can’t stay here without him. It just doesn't feel right. I know too much about this city. Sometimes a city will tell you when it’s time to go.

My Third Challenge - Understanding impact of Depression on Loved Ones
In depression, one thing I had to remind myself is “Truth lies.” I felt worthless, unlovable, alone, though it is miles from the truth. Despite the lies my depression told me, the unwavering support of those around me revealed a truth I couldn’t see. In this challenge, I want to acknowledge the efforts of another important group: people who loved me in my darkest.

The Appointment Room
Wondering what time it was, Helena scanned the busy corridors. She didn’t have a watch and there were hardly ever wall clocks any more. Late no doubt. This sort of situation always caused her great anxiety to the point of panic. She hated inconveniencing people, and tardy arrival was something she tried very hard to avoid.

Connection Between Stress and Physical Health
Physical health outcomes result directly from the weight of stress which exceeds its emotional load. Long-term stressful situations create medical conditions such as heart disease which además leads to weak immunity and ongoing pain issues. Understanding stress relationships with physical health conditions remains essential to stop ongoing stress patterns for improving your wellness.

Which provides connections to professionals specializing in stress management and mental health treatment.

Galighting is everywhere. It has always been here, but it is now the trend trickling down from the Whithouse spreading unfiltered to the people. I am bored with that form of mentality. It causes mental health issues and societal and psychological problems with human beings.

Music to Calm the Chaos
Have you ever felt so overwhelmed by life that you didn't know where to turn? Yesterday was a rough Monday for me. We're 9+ months into our major renovation, which we are living through, and I have construction fatigue. I feel like a caged animal stuck on a boat, floundering at sea with no captain. It's not what you want to be feeling this far into your project with no clear end in sight.
