Beskrivelse
Tired for months but ignoring the signs, Melissa was trying to do more and keep going, but her body started losing more and more energy. From getting to work later and frustrated she could no longer be productive like she used to be, Melissa was losing hope, compassion, and empathy, and was not wanting to go out or see people. Her world became darker and felt lonelier.
Brain fog set in, and she was unable to make decisions and had trouble doing her nursing job as a frontline worker at the start of the coronavirus pandemic. She no longer had her joy for life. Numbing herself with more wine and hiding her negative feelings so she looked happy on the outside was no longer working. Afraid to go to work or up the street because she felt fearful and afraid of the unknown, Melissa was forced to feel sick and lose control of her body and mind.
Months of viral symptoms, chronic fatigue, and traumatic memories made her curious to see what was wrong, helping her to find peace, happiness, and the real Melissa. Mindfulness, journaling, and writing helped her to identify her anxiety and PTSD
