What to do when you’re feeling overwhelmed

First and foremost, it’s important for you to know that it’s completely okay to breakdown and feel overwhelmed with your surroundings and yourself. The best of us go down this path and they ABSOLUTELY DO NOT define you. Life can simply get too much sometimes and I know the feeling when you can’t exactly pinpoint as to why you’re so irritable, but you just are. Whenever you feel like this, it’s important for you to pause. To pause the overthinking, belittling yourself, and the need to be perfect all the time. During these times, pause whatever you’re doing, sit or lay down on your bed, close your eyes, and just breathe. Cry if you have to, scream if you want to. You’re only human and you’re allowed to feel this way. You don’t have to justify the way you feel to anyone, not even yourself. 

Call a friend if you want, pen your feelings down, or just take a nap. There’s no one way to resolve how you feel and we all handle it in our own ways but I say talk, talk to someone, anyone because sometimes when you pour your feelings out to a stranger they can show you a whole new perspective., Talking to a friend helps too, they’re probably already familiar with your situation, and know the right words to say to you. If you feel like you have nobody to talk to, you can always contact me. I will be here no matter what, always ready to give an ear and some piece of advice. if you feel like you don’t want to talk at all that’s alright too. Just know that you will make it through this phase, this struggle and if not in some days, in some months, when you look back you’ll be proud of what you’ve been through and come out victorious.

In moments like these you just need to concentrate on keeping yourself calm, just give yourself all the time that you need, procrastinate, people will understand, eat without counting those calories, sleep despite the time on your clock and cry as much as you want but once you’re done, be done. Get yourself up and your life back together. Paint your canvas, write your novel, live your movie because you darling, are the main character, the light, the people, the location, the story, it’s all in your hands. YOU GOT THIS, I know you have.

Can’t wait for the blockbuster! <3
