i have become mentally strained the past few weeks but these past few days have been especially difficult for me...in a weird kind of way. i run around all the time i stay up late i wake up at weird times but lately i can't sleep at night when i am laying in bed because i feel like my brain can't turn off. then i spend all morning dragging and take a nap at random afternoon times and i think that is also what keeps me up at night. while i lay in bed i'm thinking about money (all the time now UGH), thinking about what i did that day, thinking about what i have to do the next day and if i have everything ready for the next day, but worst of all i think about what goes on with my clients. i love my work but i'm trying to learn how to not bring it home. i've gotten attached and tied up with the stories and situations they've shared with me and now i think about it while im laying in bed, trying to figure out what i need to do to help them, thinking about how i can be better....the list goes on and on
i have to learn how to worry about myself and my problems and try to leave theirs at the door because i am up late thinking about how they must feel and how badly i wish i could help. we talk about each client and any issues during supervision and seminar but it makes it hard sometimes because i can't talk about anything with anybody. Somehow just writing this makes me feel better and actually formulating words and sentences about how i feel so thanks for reading
hope you're having an amazing week
