I managed it, I had a day with no issues. Feels like forever since that happened. I had 2 friends come over (socially distanced oviously), we played geeky games – marvel ones and cards against humanity. We ate, no drinking due to baby, we laughed and it was great. I think I needed this. Some kind of normality with people.
It’s easy to forget with all the lockdowns and fear with covid that as people we need our people. It takes a village to raise kids and keep us sain as individuals and let’s be honest it’s been hard on all of us this past year but let’s hope we continue out of lockdown and get back to going out and having time for ourselves, family, loved ones and friends.
It’s OK to need a break, I’m not always convinced that people don’t judge me for needing a break and not being a superwoman but i recognise that I need me time and time to nurture relationships or this doesn’t work, by this I mean life in general – well I say I recognise it but some times I forget and just be a stress head so right now I this moment. I recognise it and if your reading this and think you need this time too ask for it and take it remember that it’s OK to not be OK!
BPD and managing life!
