How I’m Really Doing: If You Asked Me

Have you ever asked someone how they’re doing only to receive the generic response of “I’m fine” or “Everything’s good”? Yeah, we’ve all been there. But what if people actually answered honestly? What if they gave a raw and unfiltered reply? Well, today I’m going to do just that. No sugar coating or pretending everything is okay. Here’s how I’m really doing:

The Good

Let’s start off with the positives, because who doesn’t love a little bit of optimism?

1. Career Advancements

First and foremost, my career is on an upward trajectory! I recently received a promotion at work which felt incredible after months of hard work and dedication.

2. Mental Health Check

My mental health has also been surprisingly stable considering the state of events happening in the world right now!

3. Personal Growth

Lastly, I have been actively trying new hobbies and passions which has lead me down unexpected paths towards growth emotionally.

The Bad

Okay folks buckle up- its time for the bad news.

4.Relationship Woes

My romantic life is currently non-existent thanks to COVID putting a serious damper on any form of social interactions.

5.Financial Stress

Financially speaking things could be better – some days are harder than others not gonna lie!!

6.Future Uncertainty

Lastly, it’s difficult as this uncertainty about when ‘normal’ will return seems to linger over our heads

The Ugly

Now onto the nitty gritty…here comes the ugly truth everyone!

7.Battling With Addiction

Oh boy oh boy …addiction recovery has proven to be tougher every day but i am still here fighting everyday..some more successful than others but nevertheless improving !

8.Not As Confident As I Appear To Be

I could do better in terms of self-confidence, even though on occasion It comes across as quite the opposite. This is something I frequently need to work on—more than my addiction.

9.Loneliness

There are moments where loneliness hits me harder than a ton of bricks falling from the sky.

10.Strong External Pressures

On top of that there’s always some external force breathing down your neck and this constant pressure can be exhausting .

The Reality

11.Days Are Harder Than Others

Day-to-day life has been challenging—I often feel like I’m just going through the motions – however all we can do is take it one day at a time!

12.Uncertain Future

The future feels uncertain at times, which really keeps me up at night sometimes; but an old adage states “this too shall pass” so onward goes my determination to move forward!

But hey, things aren’t all bad! Here are some changes and adjustments I’ve made:

13.Changes in Priorities

Recently I have begun switching gears about what activities or tasks actually hold priority in life for me despite societal expectations .

14.Seeking Help

Finally had been able to muster up enough courage to seek professional help towards mental health and drug abuse 😊🙏🥰

Final Thoughts

So there you have it folks—an honest answer on how I’m really doing. Life isn’t perfect but its important progression continues while also being grateful for any & all prccesses thus far!! The willingness to make progress does way more than sitting around feeling capricious stopping anytime positive thoughts flow curiously over head … Nonetheless if someone asks again ‘how am i ?’ or rather…differently stated HOW THE F@#& AM i DOING !?¡ , Just know my brutally candid answer to that question has been exposed in the most comical way possible…Cheers!
