Rock Bottom



You know the story; you’ve heard it a thousand times. Whether in a book, a movie or even another blog, it’s always the same.

You need to hit Rock Bottom in order to put your life/self back together. 

This is my rock bottom.

I’m 30 years old,  I have never had a boyfriend, I’m reclusive and  I’ve been living a half life since I was 24. 

I live with the life altering chronic pain of a back injury and I have allowed myself to get to the heaviest I have ever weighed. 

I have thyroid issues, I am waiting for back surgery to relive some of my pain--- but, notice I said above "I've allowed myself" because that's the truth.

It's not the thyroid, it's not my back issues, or pain issues, or mental issues. 

It's everything.

All rolled into one, that has contributed to what I have become.

And I have allowed that to happen.

But, no longer.

I’m finally going to take control---

Put on my big girl pants---

And change my life

Is it going to be over night?

No

Is it going to be easy?

That would be a big, Hell No!

But, it will be worth it and it needs to happen.

It needs to happen or I’m going to die alone.

Sad, knowing that I wasted my life and all the chances I was given.

I need to make a change and it needs to start now.
