You Don't Know My Story

I'm sorry it's been a while since I had posted anything. I've been dealing with finals in college and some personal things. Which leads me to write this. I get judged all the time. I do my very best to always look my best and be happy no matter how I feel, and so people don't even see what I have been through, they just see the parts in their face. This goes for people that are in my life now that do know my story. They don't know what I've been through our what my parents have been through and yet they will sit there and condemn me. But I know that people are going to judge anyways, so I will remind myself that I have fought like heck to get to where I am and I will continue to be resilient.

Don't judge my story off the chapter you walked in on.

Just because you know me doesn't mean you KNOW me. I've been through a lot more than most people think. I have the scars, most mentally, but I have the scars. Just cause people can't see them doesn't mean they are nonexistent. I as told that I've not been through enough to know much about life...I've been through a heck of a lot more than they think but I'll shut my mouth because that's what I should do.
I've been told I have a Cinderella act going on and I need to drop it, though I'm sure they said it based off this blog, I could be wrong. So let me just say this. My blog: The Cinderella Story is related to SURVIVING. Getting through the abuse and becoming resilient. It has nothing to do with being fake, thinking I'm better than myself. It has to do with solely being a survivor and making yourself a better you. I have created this blog and this idea simply to "share the glass slipper" show that you can get through anything.

This has been one of the days where my depression has gotten to a high. I am exhausted because I had to force myself to get up, get dressed, put on make up, do my homework and even to eat. But you know what I do it, I force myself to do it because if I don't then I will just fall deeper into a depression. I get myself up and I remind myself that tomorrow will be a new day and I can get through it. And you know what? I'll get through this too.

So now let me do a reminder for you all:

People are going to judge, they are going to stay hateful words to you and they are going to try and tear you down whether they are meaning to or it just happens. DON'T LET THEM GET TO YOU! It is hard to do, trust me I just admitted that I'm depressed today because of what people said, but yo have to try. You have to force yourself to get up and do things, make yourself feel better.

Embracing Imperfection ~ Scars

There are many different posts I can make about "Embracing Imperfection" that's why I added a part to the title regarding this specific post Scars . We all can recognize what an external scar on the skin is; we've all fallen a few times and gotten a scrape that turns into a scar, in some cases the scar fades over time and in other cases they don't. But no-one really takes into account our internal scarring...why is that? Now I don't mean literally inside our body like scar tissue from a surgery, I mean our emotional scarring. The scarring that is so evidently present to us but no-one else sees it. If you take a look at the definition of a scar (just a scar in general) it, of course goes over other details but it also says that it is the process of wound repair and that it is a natural occurrence in the healing process . Let me repeat this...it is the process of wound repair and a natural occurrence in the healing process. What is the difference in that defi...

Perspective: "Some see a weed, others see a wish"

We all know the saying about whether the glass is half full or half empty and we are always told to look at things from other perspectives. Well, that's exactly what this blog post will be about. This world is full of evil and evil-doers and while I wish all of these bad things would never occur they do, keep in mind while reading this I am not saying it's something that should be accepted, I'm simply talking about my personally perspective about MY situation and about general situations. I've learned that by changing your perspective, your life changes. You become happier and the small failures don't become overwhelming to you as they would have before. It doesn't make life perfect and it won't mean you won't have bad times or be depressed at times, but it does a lot more than people give it credit for. Theres a quote that comes up a lot that says "If you don't like something change it; if you can't change it, change the way you look at ...

Rare Jewel of a Day

As a person living with anxiety and depression you get use to having things occur on a daily bases. Most of the time you go through the day and have become so accustom to feeling a certain way that you don't even NOTICE it; it becomes the norm. When you discuss how it's like living with anxiety and/or depression you discuss the bad days, not the everyday life that it affected by it because you don't realize that you are affected by it by most days. You start to notice this when you have the rare, amazing day where you feel good. You feel like you had ten cups of coffee (or energy drink for those that don't do coffee) because you are up and aware, you are not feeling down and tiered or nervous about everything. You are aware of everything going on in a different way; in a way that you aren't in your everyday life. What causes these day to occur? What do you do when they do? This is what I'm going to discuss in this post. What causes these days to randomly occur...
