So there’s a lady I’ve been working with over the last year…I don’t know what to call her exactly, I kind of think of her as a life coach of sorts. She gets paid and helps a lot of people out and I think she plays different roles for everyone.
For me…she’s like a paid friend. She comes over to my place and we just visit for an hour. lol
I had a hell of a rough year in 2017 and 18…I was a complete wreck after my mom passed. I legit got addicted to fast food (was taking a 30 mile trip to the nearest Taco Bell 8-10 times a week)…gained a massive amount of weight, became extremely depressed and withdrawn…bleh.
It didn’t help that I was seeing a useless therapist and had a HORRIBLE case manager during this time.
Anyhow…then I got introduced to this lady about 1 year ago…and oh man.She was just exactly the person I was in desperate need of in my life.
My mom passed away then my dad moved out of state…and I felts extremely alone in the world for the first time in my life. And I felt so vulnerable! So weak!! I no longer had my mom in my corner to fight for me, to stick up for me, to hold me up and to protect me.
Anyhow lol…sorry for the long sappy post.
This lady has changed everything for me though. I’ve made such a huge turn around over this past year. She has been an incredibly non-judgmental person in my life who has been extremely patient with me and understanding. And I don’t feel all these expectations from her like I do from a lot of other people. I don’t feel like she looks down on me or judges me for my struggles. Instead she’s been totally empathetic and supportive and non-dismissive.
She’s just been great. I’ve grown so much this year. Got my confidence back…have started to feel stable and secure again…started to keep my apartment clean (omg…it was SO disgusting after my mom passed. I have NO idea why my landlord didn’t evict me)…have stopped eating so much fast food (now only eat out 2 or 3 times a month)…and yeah…awesome stuff. My future is really looking good!
Anyhow, she stopped by today and we had a lovely visit.
Complete nourishment for my soul.
I’m so lucky to have her in my life.
Sorry again for the giant sized sappy post.
Just needed to get this out lol.
I’m super happy for you! It’s amazing what just having access to a nonjudgmental person you can talk to about stuff can do for your state of mind and wellbeing. It sounds like you’re really turning your life around.
Screw you YYE I will give as many likes to Durfee as I would like lol.
Apparently I am out of likes, but I love the fact that you were in a dilemma about dropping 350 on a ti yoyo.
and now you get 2 ti yoyos for the same price.
That is winning right there.
I was almost tempted to do it myself too just because value
