So, this is my blog I guess. I'm hoping to use it as a certain form of accountability in my goals.
Well, I'm a 21 year old single-mom college student. I get a lot of help from my parents, but I'm working on becoming independent. It's not always easy. I had a set back, and now I'm trying to put myself back on the right track. I realize that what's best for me, and ultimately my son, is that I don't get caught up in the disappointments in life, and to learn to love myself and work toward making a positive change in the world. While loving yourself is important, sometimes that involves realizing there are faults you need to change. For me, this includes losing weight, and being comfortable with myself to put myself out there to people, instead of being consumed by my anxiety and depression. These problems also play into school. I went on a leave of absence after nearly failing out, I'm so happy with my online classes I'm taking this semester, but if I want to go back and graduate from my original school, I can't let the fear from my failures consume me. I realize with more of the goals I set for myself, having a healthy mind and body are the biggest problems I need to overcome to reach these goals. I need to take advantage of this little bit of extra free time I have on my leave while I have it. So this is the start of it all, hopefully this time I stick with it.
