Anxiety

my hands start shaking
its harder to breathe..

all I can do is keep breathing.

5 year anniversary

So next month on August 21 will be the 5th year anniversary of me surviving that horrible nightmare of a car accident that ultimately changed my life forever.  Every year it is so hard for me mentally this time of year because I start getting HORRIBLE HORRIBLE post traumatic stress (PTSD).  So far mentally I have been good.  I've been sitting here reflecting about how much many accomplishments I have made so far.  Well next month look forward to another blog about this.. I'll share some of my struggles and accomplishments dealing with such a life changing event.

There is no one in my life I need to let go now but it took me a long long time to get over someone before... I didn't want to let go but I did and it was basically the best decision I have made.
