Ohhhhhh Holidays...

    This post will be a little bit different than my other posts, mostly because it delves into other aspects of my personal life that I don't usually talk about. The holidays this year have been really hard for me, starting with Halloween. My son is autistic, he doesn't care about things like that, which is fine. He is his own beautiful person that I wouldn't change for the world. But for some reason this year, I've wanted to pretend like the holidays don't exist. My son wanted to go on a walk while the trick or treaters were out, and it broke my heart a bit. To add to my anguish, I was in a pretty bad car accident that thankfully was not my fault, but it has rendered me unable to perform a lot of the things that I need to. The day after Halloween, I had a nervous breakdown. Because of my existing issues with anxiety and depression, everything hit me pretty hard. I've also had to work a lot more than usual, hitting almost full time every week since the accident
