Ask The Band: Losing Me

You know about my kids now here’s a little about me.

I am extremely stubborn.

I hate admitting I need help.

I have a ton of health problems: anxiety, depression, EDS, IIH, and fibromyalgia. All 3 of my kids have autism with other co-morbidities. My husband is my rock but he can be a pain in my ass.

I take on a lot with the boys because they’re mine it’s not up to someone else to do it and I do see a therapist.

She thinks in dealing with the latest with what I call my shitshow, I lost myself in there somewhere.

I think she’s right in a way, I’m so mentally tired I’m surprised I can form complete sentences.

I’m getting away next week for 10 days.

For the first time in 4.5 years, I’m going to visit my mom, my dad, and my sister. I haven’t been together with the three of them at the same time in a long time.

I’m actually really excited… but scared too.

Scared of having a good time.

Is that weird?

Scared I’m going to be in pain and they won’t understand. Scared of being away from my kids for so long.

Okay, I’m scared shitless.

Help!
