I started my podcast to talk about daily life in recovery, and that means showing up even when I’m in a slump. While I don’t feel hopeless, I’m frustrated with no inspiring suggestions for rising out of it. I’m physically and mentally drained, and I just need to say it out loud to acknowledge that I’m in a brief season of poopiness. Even though I know what helps, some days I don’t want to do any of it. I’ve been pulling away from things that hurt my head, limiting screen time, using VoiceOver on my phone, but that creates a sense of isolation. It feels like I’m cutting myself off, but really, I’m leaning in to take care of myself.I forget I’m living in a body that can’t do what it used to. I’m 51, and I don’t feel like I should be this limited, and that grief bubbles up sometimes. My podcast gives me a place to say the hard things out loud, and I know someone else out there might need to hear it. I’ll keep showing up, because the only way to the other side of the hard stuff is through it.Listen and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts and YouTube. Rather listen on Apple Podcasts? https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/recovery-daily-podcast/id1693924779 Visit my Etsy shop, and join my creative journey at Recovery Upcycling. https://www.etsy.com/shop/RecoveryUpcycling To learn more about vestibular disorders visit https://vestibular.org #RecoveryJourney #RealRecovery #SobrietyLife #StrokeRecovery #MentalHealthCheckIn #ThroughTheHardStuff #SelfCareInRecovery #OneDayAtATime #HealingJourney #KeepShowingUp
