When Life Feels Heavy: My Real Life Update
When Life Feels Heavy: My Real Life Update
Life is too Much Right Now!
Lately, I’ve been carrying a weight that’s hard to explain. Between trying to stay afloat financially, dealing with housing stress, and feeling completely alone most days—it’s been a lot. Too much, honestly.
I live in income-based housing, and while I’m grateful to have a roof over my head, it doesn’t always feel like “home.” It’s survival. And surviving every day with no real stability, no peace, and barely enough income—takes a toll. I’m trying, but the grind just doesn’t stop.
Bills stack up, my rent is cheap still my struggle is a lot, racked up a whole lotta credit card debt and food costs are out of control. And the worst part? I'm doing all of this alone.
I Feel Depressed...
Some days I wake up and I don’t even have the energy to get out of bed. I try to keep pushing through because I have goals, I have dreams—but I also have limits. And I’ve been hitting mine over and over again.
Emomtionally Eating...
To be real, my health isn’t great either. I have type 2 diabetes, and I’ve been emotionally eating more than I should. I know better—but lately food has been the one thing that gives me comfort when everything else feels so unpredictable. It's hard managing diabetes on a tight budget. Healthy food is expensive, and when you're emotionally drained, you just reach for what’s easy.
How I Feel About Doing YouTube Right Now..
And when it comes to YouTube—whew. I’ve been showing up, sharing what I can, and giving pieces of myself even when I feel like I have nothing left. But lately, I’ve been questioning if I should slow down with the videos or even take a break.
I don’t know for sure yet, but right now my heart is telling me to focus more on my website and building that up. It feels like something I can control, something that could lead to something real.
I might not be posting as many videos for as I usually do this upcoming week, but I’m still here. Still creating. Still fighting through. I just need to do it in a way that protects my peace.
Let me know what y’all got going on too.
