Hello everyone!!! I'm still your girl . let me take you on how I, manage my life pressures and anxiety.
First and foremost, we know very much that life can be funny at times, but with the right coping mechanism, we tend to strive well and overcome if not all hurdles of life.
I am someone who does not like to depend on anyone for survival, not even family or friends, I have grown to understand that life is not a bed of roses and for me to strive, I need to work hard for myself by being industrious and versatile. When it comes to these things, I have series of things I do to meet end means aside being a journalist. I am also a cosmetologist, I make liquid soaps, liquid air freshener, shampoo, Izal, etc. Making all these especially in big quantities and deliver to my customers, meeting with deadlines and also meeting with deadline of my work in the office can be very exhausting. But do you know the funny aspect of all these? Any day I don't do any of these things, I fall sick or even feel empty. Life is so funny right?
Now aside work and meeting end means, I also have my siblings to take care of. In the middle of work, I am always calling home, asking if things are going properly, my parents would on their own side, calling and telling me what they want me to do for them, but one thing that has kept me going in the midst of all these is that I tend to ne happy always, I add happiness in whatever I do just to keep my mental health in check.
Most times work from office becomes much on me and the only way to calm my nerves would be to speak with my Mom.
Guys don't forget that its also normal to cry!!!!! Sometimes, I bend down my head and cryyyyy yes!!!! and guess what? I feel relieved afterwards, sometimes I take a long walk alone, meditating on my achievements so far, encourage myself that I can even do better.
Coping mechanisms differs, what works for me might not work for for you, but you just have to figure yours out and do with it.
