Be Proud

These past few months have been the most difficult for so many people. Make sure you realize how you have been coping and dealing with the stress. How you’ve been dealing with the anxiety or depression. Remember how strong you are and how you’re still here, still fighting. I’m proud of you ❤️. -Jen, xo

Get Up and Try Again

* Keep trying * No matter how much you’re struggling, Or how many times you fall down, Remember to keep on pushing through. It’s ok to fall, just remember to get up and dust yourself off and try again. You’ve got this! I may not know you personally, But I believe in you... I love…

To Do List

Good morning everyone! Let’s try and remember this To-do List when we are feeling a bit down or overwhelmed. So many times we feel like we are behind on so many things, and are simply focusing on the tangible chores we haven’t done. Let’s try to remember that self care should be part of our…

Just Thinking…

Why is it that I let people’s actions or inactions bother me so much? I need to learn that others aren’t as considerate of my feelings, the way I am of theirs. Yes I know we all live busy lives, yet certain people have no problem at all in keeping in touch with one another...…

Busy, Busy, Busy…

Hi guys! I know it's been a while. I've had a pretty busy couple of months! My mother in-law came to Florida to visit us for 10 days in January, so I was busy hanging with her and the family. We had a great time showing her around and spending time with her. We took…

Anxiety Symptoms

If ever you’re around a person who you think is behaving “strangely” and you can’t figure out why, maybe they suffer from anxiety disorder. Because of my anxiety disorder, I tend to stutter, shake, speak fast, get some stomach pains, and I lash out in anger when I’m really anxious (obviously I don’t mean to).…

He Helps Me Cope

Not too long ago, I was feeling really anxious because of a mistake I made. Of course, me being me, started thinking about other past mistakes I've made, I worried about how I will now be perceived and I just felt terrible. I shut off the tv and aimlessly scrolled through my news feed, as…

Happy New Year, 2018!

Hi guys! I know I'm a couple days late, but I've been busy with family on NYE and celebrating my son's 7th birthday yesterday! It's better late then never though, right?!                 For this year, I want to surround myself with positive, loving people who actually show me…

High Functioning Anxiety

I’ve often heard “you don’t seem to have anxiety”, “you’re so funny and outgoing”. Well THANK YOU for those kind words. It has taken many years to pull through and live through the anxiety. To be able to smile, converse and enjoy myself, despite the ever nagging anxious thoughts and feelings I get through-out my…
