It truely has been ages since I last blogged. I've been back to work now for almost a year and I've learned a lot.
short list is...
balanced between self-care and work
being flexiable
change does not have to be a bad thing
be willing to stand up for what you believe in even if it seems like no one else is
being honest at work about what challenges I'm having, no more excuses
this list could go on for a while but the important thing is that I have been busy and learning a lot about myself and my own abilities to trust my gut. I'm learning that it's okay to have challenges but they are no longer an excuse for being fearful of change or not trying harder at my job.Other people believe in me so why not believe in myself? Knowing that my voice is important and without it somethings would be very different.
The suicied survivors support group is up and doing well. It's been a long and trying journey to get it where it is today. I realize just how much fear and stigma are still out there. I look forward to the day where suicide is not a word said in hushed tone in the dark. So that is the long and short of it for now. I'll try to write more often but it is sometimes hard to do after a day in front of the computer doing research for work.
