I've been taking it easy with my podcast the past week in preparation for my 42 birthday which I've just had.  I had a relaxing and tasteful birthday weekend and I thought I should give my listeners an update about my mental health progress.  I feel good!  I am ready to return to work at the end of my LOA.

I'm feeling empty but the coming of next week brings me excitement of change.  I want to start my Monday New!

This is a 2 parts recording.  When I did this podcast back on 3/30/2022 I was at a very low point in my mental health.  

In the first part you will hear my RAW EMOTIONS and I will share with you why I feel the medication I am taking have taken away part of my identity.  

Because of family emergency I had to cut short of my recording then 2 days later on 4/1/2022 I wrapped up the recording in a different mentality because by today my mood is approaching a controlled Hypo-mania and I want you to hear the difference in my voice.

In this episode I shared my personal battle with my overactive mind about how I have difficulties relaxing.  I talked about my struggles with decision making and setting goals.  I also talked about the side effects of my current medications and the type of lifestyle adjustment I am making to counter these side effects.
