It’s Been a While

Hey, y’all!

Sorry I kinda dropped off the face of the earth for a minute. Hopefully my account hasn’t been totally written off as abandoned.

To be honest, I’ve been going through it. Personal relationships have been broken, my physical health isn’t the best, and my mental health has also been suffering.

Ironically, due to a pharmacy issue, I went unmedicated for a few weeks and have only recently built my dose back up.

I think I’m pulling through, slowly. Taking life one moment at a time and finding joy in the small moments.

How are you??? I’ve missed my community here on 🍋8 and I’m excited to dip my toes back in the water!

... Read moreTaking time away from social media can feel daunting, especially when personal challenges arise. Many people struggle with mental health and the ups and downs of life, often exacerbated by external factors such as medication issues or relationship stress. It's crucial to prioritize mental well-being by seeking support from friends, family, or professionals. Engaging in hobbies, practicing mindfulness, and setting manageable goals can also help in navigating tough times. Remember, recovery is a journey, not a race, and it's vital to celebrate the small victories along the way. If you're also feeling overwhelmed, consider reaching out to your community for encouragement and understanding. You're not alone in this experience, and together we can exhibit resilience and a renewed spirit. Let’s build a safe space to share our stories, grow, and embrace our vulnerabilities together! For those looking to enhance their mental wellness, engaging with the community through forums or support groups can provide a helpful outlet. Sharing your experiences and hearing from others in similar situations fosters connection. Remind yourself that taking steps, no matter how small, toward self-care and mental health awareness is significant. Let's connect and support one another on this journey of healing and rediscovery.

Hey everyone, It’s been a whileeeee since I posted on here. I’ve been struggling a lot lately with depression. I haven’t had the motivation to clean, cook, or even shower. Living with manic depression can be so overwhelming. Medication made me feel empty and emotionless, so I stopped taking it.

Just wanted to give an update. Updated my glam routine, did a great silk press but it rained today 🫠 I used the wow dreamcoat for curly hair. I was torn at first but I think I know John Frieda and the L’Oréal heat protectant works better. I’ll be trying that next time. I might consider even

This one’s been on the vision board for a while. And honestly, not because we’re car people. Nice cars have never been something that have held a lot of value to us. But having something safer for the girls to ride in and more space for our family + just having a truck in general for my random D
