A letter to 50 year old me

Well hi there!

As I write to you the prime minister has just put the country on lockdown because of a virus! A virus that you have… you aren’t very well but you aren’t too bad. Do you remember? I bet you never take a walk in the fresh air for granted again once this is over!

I have no clue what you are up to now but I hope you achieved everything you wanted at this point in your life… as you’ll remember to have future plans as this stage of your life is immense!!! Given you couldn’t stand the thought of being here a few short months ago! I hope you got your dream of being a mental health nurse and you are happy and settled prefably with a dog or two! I hope your PTSD has largely pissed off and it’s all just a distant memory now.

I hope you remind yourself often of all the obstacles you overcame and of how strong you are. I hope your hair is still as wild as overgrown forest and is still crazy colours!

Mostly I just hope you are still around and I hope you have made the difference that you strive towards. Xx

Well when I first started this blog, I was just using it as an anonymous way to vent. I suffered a horrific year in 2018 starting with witnessing abuse in my work place and ending in an awful assault on me by a so called friend. Now as I start to recover I’m hoping to reach those who unfortunately may find themselves in my situation with nobody to turn to. I managed my PTSD symptoms a good 8 months before I was told I wasn’t going mad and actually there was a name for it. In those 8 months I came up with all sorts of weird and wonderful ways to ground and help myself. Some of the writing in my blog isn’t nice and contains some triggers so please be aware. It’s just what I need to do at the moment. But if you want to... feel free to have a look ❤️ welcome to the madhouse 😂
