About Coping Creatively
Welcome!
I was always on the go, multi-tasking jobs, household and fun activities, hobbies, and spending time with friends. Yet, I could handle any obstacle that arose with relative ease and a little rest and relaxation. I was enjoying my life and having fun.
Then one day, that all changed. I was constantly exhausted, and my brain wouldn’t function properly; I could barely concentrate on one task at a time. I would get frustrated and angry at the slightest incident and feeling unhappy and hopeless about everything; my marriage, pets, home, friends, and job. Basically, life in general.
It all began with one traumatic event at the start of 2018. Soon after, additional distressing and stressful events continued relentlessly for the next 5 years. I would push myself through each challenge attempting to maintain my optimistic mindset. I hoped that once I got through that particular challenge, I could finally rest and return to “normal .” Unfortunately, it never happened, and the blows kept coming, until one day, I realized that I had to say “ENOUGH!” and consciously make a change, or my body would stop me whether I wanted to or not.
Talking with others and seeing the same glazed stare I used to have on people walking the street, I realized I may not be the only one struggling with the chaos of life. I hope sharing my story and journey will help those in a similar situation.
I hope you find something here that will help you change your life, be the person you want to be, live the life you dream of, and be truly happy.
