Family Addiction, Mental Health and a whole lot of Faith
Life, reflection, and aging. If mid-life is here, what I am in it?
The more I share and listen to others, the more I find I am not alone. Life was never easy. Honestly, many days, life sucked. I did not want to be where I was in that moment, especially in my childhood. I certainly prayed and cried myself to sleep many a night, just to wake up and find myself on the same ride.
Many who have remained hidden somewhere in the background. Fear stomping her fight. Shame draping over his shoulders like a heavy stone cape. The burden, effortlessly, weighing her down.
The battle for ownership of A broken mind. Missiles firing, darts flying, guns shooting All where an eerie quiet resides.
How did I manage to live in both of these worlds simultaneously? Under any other god, one would be evicted for the crimes of immorality I've committed.
He is there in your regrets. He is there in your shame. He is there in all the dirty of your life.
He never desired to leave anyone behind in his or her sins. Often telling those he loved to go and sin no more. He loved the woman at the well. He loved Zacchaeus. He loved the sinners!
I have bipolar disorder. I am chaos at best, and a wrecking ball of UPS and DOWNS at my worst.
As I await the next year and half to pass, I wonder what the new me will do. I had my first son as a teenager, a young teenager, I have known no life without kids, and I am beginning to wonder what my everyday will look like now.
Without this very intimate relationship we share, I'd be crying in a bowl of Cheerios, feeling like a failure today.
Your child may seem like the cutest thing in the world to you. I’m sure they are adorable, but we’ve seemed to lose sight of what constitutes ‘brattiness’. If your child screams no at you at the age of three, you need to put a stop to it. They are doing it to their teacher at school, as well, and their friends.
