New things and A New Path




I am not the same person I was a year ago. With things constantly changing in my life, it is to be expected.
With a bunch of stuff happening all at the same time, I have started having major issues overnight. Due to the amount of stress and anxiety that I have been having, I woke up one morning unable to focus, and I was having a hard time remembering anything. I would forget a thought mid thought, and I would have no memory of what I had been thinking. I went to see my doctor, and after having several tests done, and talking she figured out that I was having serotonin problems. Since then my doctor  and I have been working to get me on the right medication that will help.
Also with all my stress, my migraines have started to become more frequent, and more intense. I am having a really hard time with them. So often the pain is so bad I want to cry. I believe some of my issue is because I simply cannot relax. I have so many things going on, and so many things that I need to get done, that I have a very hard time relaxing. I have also had a hard time really laughing. I feel  like I have so much going on constantly, and I feel like there are so many things keep piling up that I find very little enjoyment in a lot of things.
I am trying to drop the things that I don’t have to do that are causing so of my stress. So one thing I am doing is taking a break from church. Trying to go to church causes me so much stress that I swear one of these days I am going to snap. There are a lot of reasons behind this decision that I am not going to get into here, it is not the place or the time.
As for my migraines there are a few completely different things I am going to try, and all of this is very new to me.  One thing I will be doing that isn’t really different, but still new to me, I haven’t ever done it on my own, but I had done a little when I was in elementary , and that is meditation.  Meditation can be good at calming and relaxing a person, as well as help build positive energy.
Another thing I am going to try is crystals. This is totally new for me. One of the ladies I work with does this, and she has had a lot success with them. I am a little skeptical, but I figure it is worth trying, it can’t possibly hurt. People have been using them for centuries, maybe there is something to it.
The other big thing that I am going to try, I am going to talk to a spiritual healer. I am really skeptical of this, but I am to a place that I have no answers and I don’t know what to do.  I am hoping that maybe they will be able to tell me what is going on, and what I will need to do to need to do to get my migraines under control.
Another thing I have looked at, but feel very in over my head, is Astrology. I recently got my Astrology profile done, and I was stunned at how accurate some of it was.
I am really hoping that this will at least get me in the right direction I need to be in. I am tired of feeling like crap, I am tired of being tired, I want to be able to enjoy life.
