Well, I didn’t nap yesterday, but I did lay down for a bit. I have a hard time sleeping in the middle of the day but I did get some much needed rest. I locked myself in the bedroom, got comfy on the bed and watched some TV. That really helped my mood yesterday.
Reading some of the comments and going back over some material, I saw that what I was feeling was normal. I think I was pushing myself too hard. I tried to distract myself by cleaning, working harder at work and I even took on a 2nd job doing some administrative work for a friend. Between my full time job, my home and family and this 2nd job, I’m just not getting enough rest. Add to it the stress of quitting, along with its lovely symptoms, and I was a walking time bomb. So, I took yesterday afternoon for myself, to rest and regain some energy and strength.
I do feel better today, I slept well last night and I feel rested. I have to remember to not take on so much and not push myself so hard. I have a lot of extra energy lately and with trying to keep myself distracted, I think I am doing too much. I need to refocus and find a nice balance. I think I’ll make that a goal for this week and see how it goes.
I do know this….I will figure this out and I will not give up! I will not quit on my quit. It is working. I can feel some benefits already. I can do this! I’ve got this!
