New Year’s 2021 Megapost

I’m not quite sure what intentions I want to set for 2021 yet but I am ready to say goodbye to 2020. It was hands down probably the worst year of my life.

Started out 2020 in a deep depression because my boyfriend had just broken up with me a week prior. I was struggling hard with moving on, and right when I felt ready to get out there and meet new people, covid of course happened. So I spent the next few months drifting in and out of feeling heavy and sad and lonely as fuck. Somehow during this time, I realized how much I hated my job that I spent my entire life working toward. Life was a little kinder in July when my boyfriend and I somehow ended up talking and deciding to get back together... we’re still trying to make it work and I am glad I at least don’t have to feel grief anymore but damn, it’s been hard at times. Plus now I can’t stand work most days. I’ve been so much lonelier because of COVID too. My mental health has really struggled and I’m just defeated at this point.

I’ve been trying to work on myself slowly with meditation, journaling and exercise but I don’t know if it’s really helping. I tried therapy and it was ok but the cost is a little exorbitant right now.
