Lockdown has changed me. These days, I spend my time listening to people and talking about them and their lives. I don’t feel like I fit in anywhere and I don’t want to talk about myself. I feel trapped in this kind of charade where I have to keep up appearances – keep on doingContinue reading “Double edged sword.”

Woken up this morning with….
A spring in my step, and a craving for normailty. I’m craving sitting in a cafe with a Dirty Chai Latte and a good book. I’m craving watching the 6 Nations in the pub on a date or with friends. I’m craving sitting in my best friends house and just having her husbands pork cracklingContinue reading “Woken up this morning with….”
Is there still stigmatisation in the NHS regarding mental illness?
`I personally think there is, regarding certain mental health conditions. I re reffered myself to the local IAPT on Tuesday morning as I have been noticing a few things about my behaviour. Not self harm type beahaviours, not suicidal thoughts but patterns in behaviour such as crying when dealing with confrontation, a shorter fuse, notContinue reading “Is there still stigmatisation in the NHS regarding mental illness?”
Date day
So at the beginning of summer (3weeks ago), I went back to playing on Tinder and I began chatting to this guy. He messaged me first and sent long messages. It’s been over a year since I last went on a date and well the last guy was pretty weird to say the least andContinue reading “Date day”
Breathe in, Breathe out.
I’ve been awake since silly O’ Clock this morning but decided to open my curtains early. Looking at the clear blue sky with no clouds in, breathing in the fresh summer air. Tasting the salty air from the sea. Feeling the cold breeze. Breathe in, breathe out. Letting the air get through my nostrils andContinue reading “Breathe in, Breathe out.”
I had to force myself out
Today, after lying on the sofa for more than 4 hours watching shit TV eating all of the food and not facing the phone call that I was meant to take. But my friend sent me these cute ass videos which after a few too many hours of mulling inspired me to get out intoContinue reading “I had to force myself out”
Chameleon
I’ll tell you this for nout – I’m a chameleon. Today I woke up, having had enough sleep but maybe still tired from yesterday’s antics. I had gone swimming in the sea and cycled 20 miles to the local major city. It was a beautiful day and the sea is so much my calm place.Continue reading “Chameleon”
Doctor’s appointment
Buzzed in and waiting like a member of the MI5. ” Who are you here to see? ” And so I state whom. Through the next set of doors. Wash your hands here and head to to 3rd floor reception where someone will sign you in again. Up I trundle, the stairs making my foreheadContinue reading “Doctor’s appointment”
Sitting on top off Primrose Hill, relaxing in the sun with a cuppa and a good book. Life is okay ya know. Simplicity is what gets me. Sun, nature and more recently classical music. The only problem is, it’s an hour cycle home and I need the loo so whether I stay too much longerContinue reading
Lazy Saturday’s
Saturday mornings waking up early used to be my worst thing but this week I’m reveling in it. Yes, I did look at my phone for half an hour, playing on Tinder when I first awoke but then I did something different. I turned off my phone and put my eye mask on, you knowContinue reading “Lazy Saturday’s”
