Where I could have been

I’m going to get a little more personal here.

We can obviously never know the true answers to the ‘what if’s’ but we can take a good guess.

My good guess is, I could have been in a very different place to where I am now.

Now I’m not a dramatic person therefore I’m not trying to be dramatic when I say the following.

If I had not taken control of the situation I was in, spiralling in anxiety and worry for my memory, I strongly feel I would have ended up mentally very unwell for the long term and/or with dementia.

In other words, not being able to live the kind of independent, engaged life I would have imagined my life to be.

With thoughts that my memory was bad and that I was ‘losing the plot’, constantly swirling around in my mind, I’d ended up on a particular path.

Thankfully I got to that point of realising I could either keep on this path and keep suffering with worry, or take a different path and do something about it.

I took that different path.

I somehow trusted I could figure it out.

That is why I am in a completely different (MUCH better) place today.

It’s been a few years and many small steps.

Some lows where the challenge surfaces again - which I have discovered often offers the best learnings and growth.

But more highs where I’ve confidently felt ‘YES, I’m on track!’

I have been slowly re-wiring my brain.

I have learnt to massively ease and manage anxiety.

I have developed that ‘growth mindset’.

My life now and my future, feels BRIGHT.

I want to take you on this path too.
