What I initially thought was bad anxiety last night has turned out to be a stomach bug instead. My nephew(6) was puking sick when all 16 of us were together this weekend. Something tells me most others will have picked this bug up as well.
Hopefully itโs short lived.
Now my guilt and anxiety are playing into this and I had nothing to do with it. I hate conflict. I see both sides of the coin with this and I know what these family members can be like.
As a result of much baggage, one of my siblings told my mom not to bother contacting him or his family. Then, 2 days later, they ask her to babysit their youngest. She says no because sheโs hurting. They turn their backs even more. The drama will continue, I know that for a fact.
Negative self-beliefs are born from traumatic past experiences.
The beliefs themselves are part of the traumatic reaction.
So next time you tell yourself youโre worthless, pause and breathe...
...and remember that itโs your #trauma talking.

16 people.
The number of people currently living in a small space.
Also, the number of people going out on a frozen lake to do some ice fishing.
-9F but feels like -27F
Just another day in paradise.
