Life with Depression #18 - Sandy Ashley



7-9-2019: My boyfriend came home early cause who's mom was getting something done. He told me that someone from day shift that was helping his line the day before had asked him if we were still together. Cause I guess he saw me and a guy walking. I'm assuming it was my friend. Said we looked like we were more then friends. Seriously? I was so irritated by this. My boyfriend broke down was crying and I just felt helpless. I don't know what to do to make sure he knows I only want him. He told new it's hard to not believe the rumors cause he was over the whole thing after last week. Then this happened. Just annoying and frustrated.

7-12-2019: Today we had to take our youngest to dr. She had to get blood work, chest x-ray and a breathing treatment. She has pneumonia. :( She is on meds now so hopefully she gets better soon. Just can't. Not to mention. Monday found out brother in law is in the hospital too. So I'm just a little stressed out with everything going on in life right now. When does it end? Like why does this all have to happen in a week. My brother-in-law is doing better, which is great news. Just not out of woods yet. Still waiting on last of test results though to know more.

7-19-2019: This week was pretty good. I got to spend Tuesday and Wednesday with my boyfriend my kids and my great aunt and uncle. We went swimming and had dinner. My side business paid for our one night stay in a hotel and filled up my car once. That was pretty cool. :) Work last night wasn't too bad. I was pretty tired but left about 45 mins early. I don't have to go in Sunday so yay for that. More time with boyfriend and 3 of my kids. :) Life is good right now. Also there is going to be a new line between the evil man's lines and my co-workers line which means two lines between his and my line. So this makes me happy as well.

Drug Use in High School and College

Image
Drug use and experimentation tend to proliferate on college campuses. For those who can afford this experience, campuses are often a sanctuary for drug use. In high school, drinking alcohol was my only experience with substance use. Right before college, I was required to partake in an online program about alcohol – one that demonstrated how to minimize harms associated with drinking, such as not drinking if you are planning on driving, staying well hydrated, eating before you drink, knowing how many alcoholic beverages you’ve had, or spacing out the drinks you are already consuming. These strategies help to keep people safe and prevent deaths, and are referred to as harm reduction. In my freshman year, I found myself in a position where drugs of all kinds were almost literally falling into my lap. How did this happen? I was encountering drugs I had never even heard of left and right, and with the emergence of online drug markets, it could be as easy as shopping on Amazon. I ...

National Aunt and Uncle Day

Image
National Aunt and Uncle’s Day on July 26th honors a special set of relatives we look up to throughout our lives. During holidays, family events and sometimes sleepovers, aunts and uncles often hold an extraordinary place in our hearts. They fill our lives with fun, laughter, love and incredible memories.   This holiday provides an opportunity to spend time with our parents’ siblings we trusted and leaned on growing up.  It would be an excellent time to get out the old photo albums. Look through the pictures, and relive the memories of earlier days around the Christmas tree or at the 4th of July picnic or maybe at the beach vacation that included those special aunts and uncles in your life. Get together with your relatives and create new memories. Remind them of all the reasons you enjoy having them in your life. Celebrate the lessons they’ve taught you and share them with the next generation.  Another way to celebrate the day is by documenting family me...
