The last few months has really tested my patience and tolerance towards people. The new job has not turned out so well. Not only am I physically and mentally drained, it has also left me questioning my own ability. No one should work as hard as I damn do to be left feeling that way.
Last week though something in me switched, and all of a sudden my coping strategy kicked in. It goes like this -
First you have to remember I had hit rock bottom. So with all the crap life had thrown at me I took it and learnt to filter this into what is important and what you need (this is to output into a positive) then with the rest of it- use that to get angry and upset and let it the fuck out! Scream, cry, bitch, moan do whatever but you have to let it out.
Some of the crap let it bounce straight off! Ignore it, it’s no good for you!
This may sound simple but it has taken me years to learn to cope with how to manage this in terms of daily stress, let alone times of intense stress and upset.
Last year my world fell apart – I am still slowly getting stronger
