I sometimes get really bad anxiety and it rears it's ugly head when I've got too much going on and I feel out of control.
In the past few months I've been working hard to get a promotion at my 9-5 job, put loads of pressure on myself while preparing for the interview, got the job, whilst simultaneously working 3-4 nights a week in a bar and having little time to live my life or have time for me. I've been poorly twice while this was going on too. Sob sob sob... that's enough negativity.
I've decided it's time to address my lifestyle, it's making me unhappy, anxious and I'm finding it difficult to hold it together.
There's a few things I want to do this year, so as long as I make time to do these things and have time for myself I'll be okay. Saturday is my designated day of stuff for me - I've just cut my shifts at my bar job so I only work 3-12 on a Saturday. But, this means I can have the majority of a day to do stuff for me, without being shattered from doing a double shift. OMG just talking about it is making me excited.
So far my list of stuff to do every Saturday is:
- go on my weekly run
- write a blog post
- read some of the book I'm reading at the time
- check finances
If I manage to do all of these things every Saturday before I go to work, I will be so happy, hopefully less anxious.
Just some thoughts I was having on a early Sunday morning after finishing work.
