When they asked me to write an article about anything I wanted, I honestly freaked out. There are millions of topics I could write and share about, but when it came to choosing just one I knew, I had to go with this one. If you are starting a new school year, moving away from home or even trying to get over a breakup, then this article is for you.
I am one of those people that is always looking for new ways to “start over” and am an expert when it comes down to it. Over the course of my lifetime, I have developed these strategies and habits that have helped me drop everything that have held me down and move on to greater things. I now feel renewed and refreshed mentally, spiritually and emotionally. Do you want that? If your answer is yes, then you might want to keep on reading.
In the next few weeks, I will be covering a step-by-step guide on how to start over so that, you too, can feel renewed. Don’t worry though, you won’t leave empty handed. Today, I will be giving you a brief testimony of my life, so that you may be inspired to join this new journey with me. Let’s dive in!
As a child I became severely ill and because of it, all my life I have needed medication. Yes, that’s terrible. Due to this incident, I came down with depression and at the age of 15 attempted suicide (more than once actually). Since I wasn’t getting the help that I needed, my depression got worse causing me to turn to anorexia as a solution. When my mother found out, she became devastated, and so I finally sought for help. That help, however, wasn’t enough. My mother couldn’t afford my appointments, so I missed out on most of them. This time, I turned to bulimia. It still wasn’t enough. As you can see now, my life has been one complete disaster, but believe it or not, I have managed to move past it, grow from it and am now as happiest as one could be. I feel great!
This could be you too! Don’t stay in the ditch, come out of the shadows and join me for step one on how to start over on next week’s article!
