          Next month is going to be a busy month, and I’m already looking forward to July. I like to try to document my journey every Thursday, but it’s getting harder. There’s just so much to do. It’s been a busy month, and next month it will be busier. If only I was a minimalist, this moving thing would be so much easier. Besides trying to minimize years of accumulating junk, I’ve been trying to continue my mental health journey during this stressful time. As I mentioned in previous posts, I haven’t had much success with counseling. It was okay, but a lot of the things that were suggested were things that I already tried. However, I went the spiritual route and tried Christian counseling/guidance this week. I got so much more out of it, and it didn’t cost $100-$150 (It was free!). It’s one of the first times I didn’t walk away defeated or feel like I didn’t gain anything from it. We talked about so many things, and it was more of a comfortable and relaxed experience than all of my past therapy sessions put together. I actually walked away with hope. I guess you just have to try many things until you find what works for you. It’s hard to not get discourage in the midst of the journey when nothing seems to work, but it’s important to keep trying and keep believing that you will find something to help you continue to push through.

I will continue on this journey to peace and good mental health in hopes for a better tomorrow. I hope that everyone who feels defeated and discouraged to keep pushing and keep trying new things until you find what’s right for you. We all need to re-light that flame of hope that’s inside of us. Let’s keep fighting, trusting and believing. We have to believe that we are worth it.
