RE: Hello! Hello! Group #5: Work-Life Balance After Joining Steemit

in #steemit7 years ago

Hello my fellow HHG brothers and sisters

ON THE TOPIC 8

Well I believe the truth frees us all, and if there is anyone in a similar position as myself then, just as in my blog I tell the truth. As of right now I do not have a job. I struggle with mental illness and in the past few months it has been intense and I am on my way to feeling better. So to keep me occupied, I have allowed Steemit to essentially become my hobby, and my job is to get better. This is a hard truth. I want to be working and I cannot wait to be back in school in September to be a Paralegal. But in the mean time I have to focus on my health so that I can do amazing in University again. I have a long road ahead and Steemit is a constant reminder to keep going. It gives me deadlines (like contests), and something I have to do everyday, and I am proud of myself everyday. Also just like having a job, it has allowed me to socialize without leaving my place which is sometimes difficult for me or I have no energy too. I appreciate everyone here who is working so hard at their jobs, have families, and still contribute on steemit. You are everything I wish to become and I feel I am on that path.

Steemit has..
-Given me something to look forward too
-A way to express myself
-A hobby/job to do
-People in my life that are supportive and amazing
-Excitement
-Takes my mind off everyday battles

Getting well is my job, but steemit is my hobby that keeps me sane.
Go in a good way.

Hi @teggit, where are you dear? Hope You are doing well

Sorry I have been at my parents farm and didn't take my computer with me. I had some self reflection time haha. I was absent for this topic very much so, but I will be at it again and I am keeping a close eye on your fashion posts! @shanu <3

@teggit, it’s good to see your msg. I’m happy u are having good time with parents. Enjoy! Thank you so much dropping by my page.😊

Hi @teggit, my super duper apologies for the late response. I have been away to recharge myself after that big event of mine last Sunday (March 25). As a perfectionist, it was not my best delivery for that event, but I did receive a bunch of compliments from many people that made me calm down. I received a box of expensive chocolate as a thank you note from a club member and also a speech by the Captain complimenting me for that successful event... and so I feel that my task has accomplished and I deserve a deep rest before my next big event in early May.
I am sorry to hear about your battles. I am all with you to keep your mind busy doing something that can keep you occupied from your everyday battles. I am an OCD for perfection and gets frustrated when things doesn't go the way that I like. I am very happy that you are part of HHG, you are gonna make a fine lawyer one day. My prayers with you. Please please take care and wishing you a pleasant weekend. Hugs from me.

Thank you @ainie.kashif I have been rather absent to this group this week as I was concentrating on my health but it was still a very nice topic and I am glad to see that everyone can be so open and share their struggles and successes with each other. Take care!
