So, what are you up to?
I'm on my seventh week of Lexapro and finally starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel. Now I'm trying to slowly get back into things that bring me a lot of joy after taking some time to heal (sleep): blogging, creating art, reading.
Although I've been writing about my epilepsy journey since November, it's only really began to hit me in the last month or so what it means for the rest of my life. It hits me in waves, and makes it feel like the ground beneath me is constantly shifting. As soon as I've found footing that feels solid, things change again.
To help work through how disorienting this has been I've dug deep into spirituality (between the naps). I've considered myself to be a Buddhist since I was a teenager, and reminding myself of the essential principle of impermanence has brought me a strange sense of peace during this time.
The basics
Season: Spring has officially sprungπ·
Color I feel like lately: #e38195
Current Personal Mantra: One step at a time // The path of healing is non-linear
Media
On Repeat: The entire Brooks Neilsen discography. I loved The Growlers; when my husband discovered their lead singer had started a solo career his music quickly became one of our favorites to jam out to together.
Reading: Just finished The 50th anniversary edition of The Tao of Physics by Fritjof Capra I picked up at "The Witchy Store" last month. Now I'm going to work my way through a copy of I Ching by Kerson and Rosemary Huang I found at my local used book store.
Gaming: I've been playing PokeRoGue and watching my husband play through Horizon: Zero Dawn
Watching: Just finished Nichijou, or My Ordinary Life. Peak anime content in my opinion
