Hidden Behind The Smile

What we do we do with our new found success? Throw it away and start all over of course. This week I'll talk about why we crawl out of the fire and instead of taking the time to heal ourselves we jump right back into the flames.

Forever, nothing actually lasts that long but still we assume everything and everyone will be with us from start to finish. This week I'll speak about the time frames we give ourselves and those we keep around us. Are we holding onto our goals too long? Are we holding onto our relationships for too long?

Have you ever had such a great day ruined because of one moment and then the whole week is written off? This week I'll go into ways for us to combat our negative mindset when our happy place isn't working and how we can get around these negative mindsets we have.

Learn from the past or be doomed to repeat it. But what about carrying it around like a textbook your whole life? This week I'll talk about why we have to let go of our past for the sake of our future self. Also I'll speak a bit on why it's better to be silent in our success than throwing a parade for ourselves.

This week I'll pick up where the last episode ended. I'm going to go a bit more into my past and why I decided to suppress emotions and feelings. Why I felt the need to go it alone and how I eventually allowed others to help me out. Also I'm going to have a mini vent session about how we treat athletes and kids trying to figure out their life.

We're all great at giving advice to others, but not experts on practicing what we preach. This week I dive back into my past and how I struggled to find where I belonged. I'll go into how I struggled to accept who I was and the different paths I took to cover up who I was from the outside world. I'll also briefly discuss my support group and how they helped me accept and love the person I am today.

What sets you off? In this episode I'll go into a bit of my background and history with my addictive personality and habits. I'll give a quick discussion about my triggers and ways that I'm able to repress them before I let my head get the better of me and act on them. Stop and smell the roses. Take a step back from the world and let it pass you for a minute. All that was weighing you down will suddenly not seem so heavy.

I apologise in advance I'm still messing around with some new mics and settings so bear with me while I straighten it out. This week I dive into a small pet peeve of mine and many others, how all mental health illnesses are unique to your own being and discuss why we should stop comparing each of our problems to others.

I'll give a little bit about my background and history with depression, anxiety and addictions along with the first steps I took to confront my problems in a healthy and safe way. It's time we found out voice and stopped being silent. Suffering alone will get us no where, our only chance of making it is if we stick together and speak up.
