I have been having these extreme ups and downs of fearful thoughts since this year has started. As I’m writing this I’m not sure what I’m trying to express myself. I just want to let some thoughts and feelings out, I guess.

I think this is just a crazy time of release or transmutation or transcendence that makes me feel hopeful but hateful about everything all at once. I’m in this liminal space where all desires seem possible but I don’t know which options would make me happiest.

People say, ‘We become cowards at the gate of happiness…’ But I don’t even know if the gates I’m facing wouldn’t trick and disappoint me. I’ve lived my entire Life surviving disappointment after disappointment; I can’t help but dread the idea of passing another challenging gate, only to be met with another subpar Reality…

It just feels like a broken scenario that isn’t worth another broken heart. All of my hope and faith for nothing but fleeting delight… Another false alarm.

Typically, I’m not one afraid of making mistakes. But when imagining myself living with the consequences of good enough choices that are inherently lesser than my grandiosely greedy desires, I get debilitating anxiety. I don’t want a Rolex of a Reality; I want my Patek Philippe of a Reality… if that… makes sense.

I know I should know better not to be so unsure and cowardly about the future. I write content about everybody’s Highest Possible Destiny and blah blah… But I get paralysed at every new thought for analysis.

☆♪°・.

On another note! After roughly a year battling with low income to a point of forgetting how it feels to have resources… Demand for my ‘day job’ has returned to normal!✨🌸📚I also •suspect• I’m the only writer my long-time client is working with at the moment, so he’s giving me SO MUCH WORK TO DO!📚✍🏻👩🏻‍💻🍾

Never will I know money worries again unless another pandemic bullshit hit🤞🏻But that being said, I’ll need to make a lot of time for my ‘day job’ for now so I can secure my finances going forward✨But you already know I feel the most lethargic on days I can’t touch my tarot cards and work on something for the blog. Yet, PACs require so much energy and spiritual focus; there isn't enough time in the day to work peacefully on both🥵

SO! I’m finally going with this idea I’ve been ruminating for quite a while!🎉

Punk Daily Read!🌸

Not daily predictions. More like daily reassurances for when somehow someway something in your day turns gloomy. Just in case you could benefit from words of affirmations that act like an umbrella to protect or ice cream to elevate your mind from excessive sad thoughts🎭😿☔️

I would definitely benefit from that. These days I’ve been battling gloomy skies in my mind to such an extreme I lose my shit on the daily. I’ve been binge watching tarot readings on YouTube e.ve.ry.da.y and it’s still not helping. Sometimes I have heart palpitations from too much worry/anxiety/overthinking. I need something more calming coming from myself🌸🍦🍵

I’m still working on the formats, templates and aesthetics of Punk Daily Read, but if you’re interested, don’t hesitate to give it a follow now~🌸This secondary blog will be dedicated to JUST daily readings💗Hope you’ll enjoy💐🌷🩰

early psychology and psychiatric treatment really was just “I don’t like your face and your vibes are rancid” and they used that to justify horrific treatment of people huh

#this is not specific to Jack and I recognize that he’s problematic yet still way better than his contemporaries would’ve been #but this update did remind me about what an absolute lawless land early mental health treatment was #and it says a lot aboht what the sorry stage of the field back then that he’s considered progressive and forward thinking #dracula daily #personal #erika's blog and bar

unfortunately they were onto something about tracking cycle phases in relation to food, activities, sleep, etc. and also not consuming alcohol. and also upping protein intake.

#the clear headed feeling in follicular phase is really something I tell you what #and I can run on little to no sleep rn when literally 7 days ago I could sleep 14hrs a day and still be brutalized by daily life #also they were right about decreased anxiety when you’re not drinking alcohol #mental health goin wild I tell u what #30g protein before coffee in the morning has legitimately changed the game #cute lil updates from my world.

Get a hair cut and get a real job...

Well, it finally happened... My life has progressed from student, to worker, to musician, to student, to worker ... I now have what, as a musician, I'd call a 9 to 5, the daily grind, a normal job, that thing the folks in the crowd do when they're not at my concerts!

It's been an unusual journey, at least it feels that way. I realise now, I was actually quite comfortable as a touring musician in Europe. I had steady work, especially in those last few years, I knew what I was doing, I was confident and I had a hell of a lot of fun; good bands, good venues, good fans and good money. I was writing songs and I had my own studio too.

I was set...

The transition to working in Australia has brought about a lot of challenges and lessons learned. I know I fell into an awesome artistic opportunity when I worked on Elvis, and then did a few more TV shows (well, the stuff that ended up on Netflix). But that was different than a “real” job. It was fun, casual, challenging and super interesting too. I was surrounded by pros doing their jobs, actors doing their acting or supporting actors, like myself, waiting for the director to holler “cut!” As Baz said “film is forever”. It was and still is a big deal to me.

I am on the big screen! 

But the new job, being part of the Australian workforce day in day out, is a real challenge. 

I don't work 9 to 5, I don't have an office, I drive a lot, I am outside in any weather, I have homework, I work shifts which chop and change every other day... and after all that, I get a pay check that doesn't quite resemble my sense of self worth.

Since starting the job, I've been on edge all the time, I don't mean in the sense I'm scared something might happen to me or my client, but that I am responsible for someone else's welfare while they are in my care. It's a constant thing, in the background, under the surface. 

When I'm finally home trying to relax, I worry about the shifts the next day, did my manager change them and forget to tell me? How will the client feel tomorrow? Am I up to the task? Did I miss any emails today? 

When I finished the course, I wasn't quite sure about what I want to do, and I applied to various vacancies that tickled my fancy. Although possible, I wasn't confident enough to go out on my own as a counsellor. I felt I needed more experience first, and it also felt a bit like being a musician, I'd be constantly hustling for work, or at the very least it would be up to me to find the work, to obtain clients, and network with other professionals. After all the energy it took to study, I wanted something a little easier to slip into, especially because this was a big career change.

Oh boy, was I wrong about it being easy...

When I got the interview, nailed it and then the job offer, that was the easy part.

I am a community support worker. It's a job whereby I support clients, with various mental health concerns, getting out into the world. I help them reach their goals, I support them with any reasonable request, or something they agree to that I or someone else might suggest. Sometimes I am just helping out deleting emails off a phone, sometimes I am booking doctor appointments or arranging scripts and sometimes I am just someone to chat to, play a game with, or take a walk with. The job is constant, spontaneous and intense.

The company I work for is big, and is in a big transitional stage at the moment, there's new management and new processes, policies and procedures. It's very daunting, because the last time I worked in Australia this much, was back in 2002! In fact I started the new job almost 20 years to the day I left my old one in Melbourne! There's so many rules and things I was not aware of, I'm learning on many fronts, the industry, the company, the client, mental health and, funnily enough, myself. 

Honestly, I am finding it hard to adjust to this new life style, it's very energy sucking.

There's management, and how to work alongside them, and the clients who for the most part are lovely folks that are in need of support. There's the whole community services industry which to me is a big complicated mess. I am used to being in a band, with 3 or 4 guys in a van, it's a big adjustment. 

I'm still learning how to do all of that, and how to take care of myself in a job that one can quite easily burn out in. I'm learning I need days off, I need some time to sleep, relax, do the things I enjoy, and enjoy the company of friends and family. I'm still battling that challenge each day, I feel like I can't switch off and there are not enough hours in the day. 

I am learning what I don't like about working too. I haven't done this kind of work before, and it's been really good to know what I want going forward. I may stay in this role for a while, the experience is good, but I will eventually move on, find something more suitable to my needs, and I have narrowed down some future expectations.

I feel that I need regular hours, or at the very least, when my hours are set, they don't move. I've had many shifts chop and change from one day to the next, throwing me way off course. It's a lot to adjust to for someone who likes the safety net of knowing what's coming up. My roster is constantly changing, some days I can adjust a bit quicker than others, some days I just long for a clear plan.

I also know, in the end, I'd like a job that is closer to home. I am driving 100s ks each month getting to clients, and it is wearing me out. I am not paid for that time on the road, I am not compensated, and my time is precious, I'm not getting any younger. It's lonely work too, and while I can work really well on my own, I wouldn't mind colleagues to bounce ideas off. 

I am also trying to get used to having a manager. I have tried to be as available as I can, as flexible as I can, as open and honest and as supportive as I can. Sometimes this approach has worked well, but sometimes I feel I am not trusted. In fact, there have been a few sticking points that I may move past, but it has taught me that having a good manager I can trust is really really important. I will make sure at my next interview that I am confident the manager is someone I wanna work for/with long term.

I am enjoying the challenges of working with clients. It's interesting how each client is individual, and that each shift can offer a large spectrum of behaviours, responses and support (that I am required to offer). This kind of spontaneity I can handle pretty good too. Each week, I am learning as much about them as I am about myself, we all have good and bad days, we all have only so much energy, and our needs change all the time. 

During the first few weeks of this job, I was thrown in the deep end. I had a client before I even did basic training! My manager at the time asked me if it was OK and I felt that saying no would only increase my anxiety for the next first client. Client #1 knew what he was doing and I was honest and asked him for guidance, and he was gentle with me. It was a good beginning, but since that first shift I am recognising I am sometimes drowning in the unknown and in anxiety. As fulfilling as this role is, this position tests your limits on various fronts.

I finally did a “buddy” shift months after starting, it's a shift where some experienced helps show you the ropes. By the time it happened, it was more a handover, as my “buddy” was leaving the company and had some high needs clients, management thought it was a good idea for me to be introduced to these clients. During those shifts I learnt one could relax on the job, my “buddy” was a very chill guy, who didn't seem to let anything get to him. The difference could be that he'd been in the job for a couple years and just got very comfortable in the role, but I had in the back of my mind that if I am not focused on the client, their needs, goals and requests, I am not actually doing my job. While silence and sitting still is part of the work, I don't feel that it's the focus of my work. I still haven't decided if I am over thinking it, if I am wearing my “counsellor” hat too tightly or if I am just not that sort of person who relaxes on the job. 

Only time will tell... 

In the end, I am happy to work, to learn, to find out what I like and don't like about this industry, the direction my next steps may be and how the other half live, that is those who are really struggling with every day life due to mental health illnesses. 

I struggle each day, and I don't acknowledge that enough. I write about it sometimes but I feel it every day, win, lose or draw. Getting my head off the pillow can be a real struggle. I make it look easy, but sometimes it's downright heavy man.

I felt it terribly earlier this week, and all I wanted was to stay in bed. But I had a shift, I had a client, I had someone who has had a rough time and who needed my help... So I got out of bed and helped him. In the end we had a good day, he made me laugh, I got him to laugh and we even worked on some of his goals. It was a good day...

Then I went home, and curled up in bed... 

Thanks for reading

Josh

Life 1 📽️

I was very anxious to attend the birthday party this morning. For the first time in years, I'm going alone. I mean no one from my inner circle is coming. I was anxious that they won't include me in their conversation or they either ask me personal questions I can't answer or they won't. Instead they were too nice to talk about things that I could relate to. Like our playhouses in grade school, our crazy high school days. I was included though we don't spend time together often. I don't even share any class in hs to some. That's why I am grateful because I am ending my day happy because of them. I survived the party. I survived the day without major panic attack.

Thank you for making me laugh though I can't deny it I'm still socially awkward. 🥹🫶

I wanted to wait until I became a better writer before starting a blog, but who knows when that will happen? ...just kidding… the more I write, the better my writing will become. I need to read more books. The plan is to avoid negative self-talk so I can stop putting things off because I'm not confident enough or prepared enough. Stop overthinking. A reminder to me and you.

I don't know if this is a phase of adulting, but it seems like I am lost in my life right now. I feel like I am stuck in a time loop. I can't see myself in the future once I thought my life could end up with. And I am not trying to become better even if I am aware of my situation. This must be terrifying, but I am so tired to be terrified by it. If my old self could see from the window of the past to what is me now, he would be disappointed. But he doesn't know better; he doesn't know that this will happen to him at some point in his life. I know as life act like a boat floating in a stormy sea; eventually, it will land in the meadow with butterflies and sunshine. I need to keep holding the thought that everything will be better for me somehow.

i actually hate looking at apple curated podcast collections bc so many of them are current events, pop culture talks, HERE’S WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW THIS WEEK, meditations by celebrities, politico talk, true crime, more meditations by celebrities....

idk if i’m just not looking the right way but i have yet to find even a single podcast i actually like via collections bc i have not yet seen one (1) focusing on fiction podcasts, dndpodcasts, or the weird horror podcasts that make up the majority of my podcast listeninge experience

#liveblogging life #sometimes i check out apple podcasts to update my podcast library and this happens lol #like the weird venn diagram of my podcast listening history is: weird horror anthologies comedy mcelroys dnd liveplays writing related #plus the medieval podcasts my sister keeps sending to me to listen to #i tried doing the daily but the upkeep on a podcast that updates so often exhausted me tbh i cant do that #all the current events ones just make me tired like... i want to know what's happening in the world but at my own pace #and i have zero interest in hearing a celebrity explain to me about how to manage my mental health lol #this is probably why the only podcasts i've ever listened to regularly have been tumblr recs huh #or recs from podcasts i already listen to

Hey everyone I just want to be completely honest with you guys as to why it really takes me so long to update especially with my longer stories. Its true work does take up a lot of my time but that's not the only reason honestly I could probably use all of my free time to write. But its kind of hard to with the environment in its hard to get anything done. I like being alone in a room when I'm writing sometime with utter silence maybe some music. Every now and then and I don't get much of that these days.

Because I live in a freaking hotel with mom and I'm so tired of it. She doesn't understand how this affects my mental health because she's incapable of understanding I love my mom but it's the truth. She can't see anything from anyone's perspective but her own. On top of living in a hotel she babysits my sister's kids at least 3 times a week literally all day. Because my sister has to be to work at 7am and is supposed to get off at 7pm but doesn't most of the time she gets off at 8pm or even 10pm. I literally can't get any writing done when the kids are over unless I go outside which I do anyway but it be hot out there these days. I love my nephews but they can be aggravating especially when I only have one day off and they're over here that day.

Especially when my sister is off and decides to go off and drop them off, or when when she's supposed to be off but goes into work. I plan my day thinking at least the room will be kid free but then its not. I'm sorry its inconsiderate of both of them and all my mom does is complain about it. I'm about five seconds away from just leaving my family and everything I know behind.

I know this turned into a rant but I just needed to get this off my chest. Because at this point I'm ready to burst.
