Just Existing at 34
These last few months, I’ve been hit pretty hard with a few things in my personal life in a short amount of time, which has led me to sacrifice a lot of time and investment away so i can take care of myself, family and other necessities causing much physical and mental struggles.
To say that life most days now for me are quite lonely, for I don’t have many people or things in my life anymore. I guess not everything you see and hear doesn’t always have beauty. This is just me being transparent and vulnerable.
I hope that things will start healing for me outside of streaming, outside of social media, so I don’t have to feel like I am living in crisis mode. A lot of changes will be coming soon, on this page or maybe start new, so if you don’t see or hear much of me outside of any business, just know that I am still here… existing.
For now this is goodbye to anyone or anything that no longer aligns or serves my time and energy and welcome to my new life.. just existing at 34.
Going through tough times that affect both your mental and physical well-being can feel overwhelmingly isolating, especially when it coincides with major life transitions like turning 34. From my personal experience, it takes courage to openly acknowledge the weight of such struggles and prioritize healing. I’ve learned that mental health challenges often demand giving ourselves grace and the space to truly recover without pressure or guilt. KasuallyKat’s story about sacrificing time and energy for family and self-care resonates deeply because it highlights how life’s demands can drain our resources quickly, leading to loneliness and a sense of living in crisis mode. In those moments, creating boundaries by saying goodbye to things or people that no longer align with your values is crucial for reclaiming your peace and energy. The theme “time wealth > money wealth” is powerful and reminds me that measuring success by moments of calm and personal growth often matters more than financial gain during healing seasons. Actively seeking new opportunities, like part-time roles in community or social media management as KasuallyKat plans, can provide stability while nurturing creativity and well-being. If you find yourself isolated or emotionally drained, remember that it’s okay to pause social media and streaming to focus inward. Healing doesn’t happen overnight, but with patience and support, life can gradually shift from surviving to thriving. Embracing vulnerability like KasuallyKat does encourages connection and hope for those navigating similar paths. Ultimately, existing authentically through the ups and downs is a brave and meaningful act of self-love, especially at pivotal times such as entering your mid-thirties.
