I’ve always battled with mental health and know so many people who have too. And the hardest thing can be that the good days are followed up by bad ones. Depression and anxiety will take hold wherever possible and it’s never easy to admit to anyone that they have. But I’ve learned that being committed to not saying anything is the same as being committed to never changing, to never getting any better. I hope that anyone who suffers from the same would reach out to me before they ever threw in the towel. The first step back towards the light is reminding yourself you deserve to feel it 💕 #openandhonest #confessional #mentalhealth https://www.instagram.com/p/BxW6MOKlKed/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=110psh2adqmoc

Midweek Meltdown 🥴 This photo is me in all my glory. I’m a mom and a wife and a friend to a select few 😳 by choice. For the most part life is good. I’m happy, they’re happy my husbands happy but last week (the entire week) was a shit show and I was a mess. I was Mad 😡 like fuming every day last week. I think quarantine life hit me and all the bickering between these 3 escalated and the stuff that usually rolls off my back was pinching every nerve. Then my husband - oh lord I couldnt stand the sight of him. Things don’t way him down the way they do me. He can tune us all out. He apologized with flowers one day and the next he was acting like a prick - it probably would have been NO big deal but this time - last week...he could do nothing right. If you know my husband he’s pretty relaxed so we were both at the end of our rope, me with life and him with me. That was last week, today we are gone, away from home, just the 2 of us and things are looking up. No one said marriage or being a mom would be cakes and pies every day but when you work through the shit, the rainbow is so bright on the other side. All this to say life is hard but baby so am I. #lifeishard #midweekmeltdown #sharingiscaring #mytruth #openandhonest #feelgood #feelings #lifeishard #bossbabe #momlife #beingawife #marriageishard #lifeisgood #baddaysbuildbetterdays #imgood #wereallinthistogether #stayingstrong #madeitthrough #momlife #mamabear #iamstrong #wearestrong #youareenough #iambrave #lifeisbeautiful #hardwork #beingamomishard #ilovemyself #ilovemyfamily #selfie #workedhardforthis https://www.instagram.com/p/COfwp4gpwuI/?igshid=glfqx2gqsb8x

My thoughts on this week’s episode of #Married2Med’s #OpenAndHonest which maybe being too open and honest leads to hurt feelings and some form of savagery apparently. Oooh chyle. Nonetheless, my thoughts are live on my YouTube: afiyathediva, #subscribe while you’re there! #realitytvreview #youcanlearnalotfromrealitytv #MarriedToMedicine #BravoTV (at Atlanta, Georgia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B2aXnkYFhsd/?igshid=16zw6cgloxso4

all is fair...
This is the love of my life, Chris. No, being in love is not always easy and yes, I do see myself spending the rest of my life with this human. Now realistically the odds are against us, I mean the average rate of divorce in the United States is 50%. We are not married and we have only been together for, if i’m being honest here, less then a year. “That’s not very long, how could you possibly know if he is the one?” Because you just know! Chris makes me happy, he sees beauty in me even when i’m not being beautiful. He hates that I wear makeup but, he knows it makes me happy. He genuinely cares about my health and well being. He accepts my flaws and is encouraging to my dreams. But people, things are not always cake and ice cream. We fight, and we have had make or break moments in our relationship. We don’t have the same views on every subject and that is okay. I hate the way he doesn’t always listen and he hates the way I over think EVERYTHING. We fight about money, and our priorities. We fight about exes and old emotional wounds. We even fight about, of all things, who is going to mow the lawn in our hypothetical future. I sincerely believe that if you don’t fight with your significant other then you probably aren’t always being honest, and that’s not good. I think you should always be able to tell your person what you feel, how what they are doing impacts you, in what things they are lacking or even being too much and they should be able to do the same with you. A person who truly loves you will never be mad at you for that. If you are in a relationship and don’t feel like you are being heard, make yourself heard. Depending on that persons response you will see what your future holds. If you just started a new relationship and you haven’t had a single fight yet, wait for it, it’s coming. When it does come watch how that person acts during the argument and then sit back and really ask yourself, am I okay with this for the rest of my life? If the answer is yes then continue your fight and trust me when I say, it will only make your bond stronger. If the answer is no, then reevaluate the substance of your relationship and you may have to move on. That is a brutal truth in any relationship. After the “honeymoon” stage you see who a person really is and it’s better to let go of something in the beginning then drag out a long, toxic relationship that will end in emotional damage. For my single readers, my advice to you is, know your worth and never settle. I have settled in the past and I can tell you from experience it is damaging to your soul. Each time you leave a bad relationship, you take a piece of that baggage into your next, and you accidentally make that person pay for the past. You have to remember, as hard as it is, everyone is different. Everyone comes from a different background and has had their own struggles with love. Another favorite saying of mine, and if you know me you know I have a lot, is “hindsight is 20/20.” If you don’t know what that means, in a nutshell it’s don’t judge a book by its cover. I hope that some of what I have said here helps, and you are always more then welcome to email me questions, or write on the beprettybig facebook wall. For now I leave you with this, follow your heart, and trust your head. xoxo Allie

✋🏽Keep it. If there’s one message I’d like to communicate through my work, it is: Language is explicitly and implicitly used as a foundation of the structure of our thoughts, actions and relationships— AND how we use POWER. This comes back to “Be impeccable with your word”, one of @donmiguelruiz #fouragreements Kindness based in the omission/avoidance of the truth is oppressive. 🌀In what ways do you see it as oppressive to the recipient of the message? 🌀In what ways do you see it as oppressive of the sender of the message? I have a lot of ideas about this, but am very curious about how you may have experienced this and/or what comes up for you around it. _ Keep it real and honest. And remember just because you want it to be true, doesn’t make it true. Feet in the ground, self-empathize and know your truth before expressing. #openandhonest 💭 — Rachel Simmons (at Santa Ana, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvxXQ4IgkjJ/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4l2wh40cw5po

Welp, here goes nothing... first day back on Wellbutrin. I’ll keep y’all posted🤷🏻♀️ I did go to the doctor the other day. They started from scratch and took an entire life history. My official diagnosis is major depression, PTSD/complicated grief, ADD, and binge eating disorder. I know it sounds like a lot to unpack, and we’ll talk about it as I go through my recovery. What I find is that when I’m feeling a certain kind of way and having these issues, it feels better to put a name on it that is actually medically recognized. The stigma that I refuse to cave-in to still lands sometimes. I mean, we live in a world of fat shame. But we also live in a world where a woman is shamed when she can’t do it all and be superwoman. I used to be that woman. I used to take care of everybody at all times and do everything that needed to be done in a day, plus keep everybody happy, and I looked good doing it. I WAS Superwoman. So I’m pretty hard on myself when I can’t function like I think I should, and do what I used to. Part of the plan now is learning to accept myself and my limitations, while still trying to do the best I can to live a normal (MY normal) happy & healthy life. #fuckdepression #antidepressants #sometimesyouneedthem #hopingforthebest #lookingforward #wellbutrin #depression #add #bingeeatingdisorder #ptsd #complicatedgrief #comingoutofthedark #crushthestigma #noshame #mynormalisntyournormal #sometimesweallneedhelp #dontjudge #openandhonest #nothingtohide #veganchick #empathchick (at Coral Springs, Florida)

A little puppy love to end the night, compliments of Miss Trout and @thirdeye_k9 (ft. 1" Soft Collar in Black) #modernicon #madeinusa #handmade #qualityoverquantity 📷 @bettertogether_k9 ・・・ Miss Trout getting some #love from our #DogMan @thirdeye_k9 after she did some #backpack and #dirtbike #work... All of our dogs do work, not because we bribe them with toys, or force them via e-collar, rather they do it because we need them to. Our dogs recognize this need and do what they are told with simple love and praise as their reward. #openandhonestcommunication is vital to developing a #true #workingdog... #sportingdogsarenotworkingdogs Our #philosophy as well as #methodology are simple when you think about it... Don't get caught up in the unessential when it comes to #training your dog... Keep it simple, clear, and direct, giving lots of love/praise for a job well done, or clear correction when they don't do as asked. You may be surprised how receptive your #pup will be to this simple process. #dogtraining #openandhonest #constantstudent #nextgeneration #ourfuture #malinois #belgianmalinois #Montana #bettertogether #thirdeyek9

Lily had a fever last night when we returned from the corn festival. I really hate seeing her like that. I went into super mommy mode and tackled that cold with medicine, vick's vapor rub, and Bible scriptures! She's still warm, but not technically a fever ~ Glad she is okay today. Sickness is one of the reasons I am working hard to change my visa and to work for myself. I want to be able to keep her home when sick or to go to her shows or events at school. She is quite sad because I can't go to her 유치원 performance on Wednesday (Doesn't help that I found out about it in the newsletter given on Friday 😔). My Lilybunny is the most important thing to me and I will continue to push myself to reach these goals, so that she doesn't have to have many sad days where mommy can't attend her events. It's already hard enough when they do Father events or she sees a kid on their dad's shoulders and I hear her say "Mommy, I want a daddy, too." ��😭😭😭😭😭 I cry so much these days, but I'll keep fighting. I won't give up! #motivated #motivationalpost #myreasons #keepthefaith #leanonGod #christianliving #womanforchrist #singlemomlife #singlemom #openandhonest (at 원주무실동) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz7zrBrnf1X/?igshid=1ln66tvp7gls6

Just something I want to be open and honest about... If you're not down for raw honesty, that's ok... You don't have to read any further... ...anyway... Those who know me well know how much I want to become a mother! I'm still searching for my soul mate though. Still giving romance another chance... ❗️But... BUT!...❗️ If, for some reason, I ❗️CAN'T❗️find a significant other who's NOT willing to be in a serious, committed relationship with me, I have an idea of how to get pregnant WITHOUT a partner! I made the decision to get pregnant by a donor and through an IVF! I'm not even kidding! That's how bad I really want kids of my own! I'm already aware on the single mom commitment so don't worry about that. 💢By the way, I'm NOT saying I'm going to do a donor or an IVF anytime soon!...No, no... Like I said, I want to give love another chance to see if there is someone out there for me!💢 However, I will DO the IVF plan if a partner isn't meant for me. I'll be ok with being a single mother without a husband👌🏻❤️ Don't worry, Ariel and Poseidon (my future daughter and son), mommy has a backup plan to bring you two to the world still. That's my promise to you guys🌍💗 I'm in love with these children even though I haven't met them yet👶🏻💓👶🏻💓👶🏻💓 #mythoughts #thinkingaboutthings #myfuturechildren #ihaveaplan #backupplan #openandhonest #myhonestmotherhood #honestfeelings
