Honestly I thought he was out of his mind, I'm a mess and he is not telling me how to manage things??? any kind of coping skill???? He didn't tell me that things would eventually work out???

That night I had been thinking hard about him telling me to float all damn day.. The only entry in my journal that night was " Float"

Sometimes we are fighting so hard to swim upstream against the current that nothing we are doing is helping, We are mentally and physically exhausted. So maybe throw your hands up and know that things are going to change. Maybe not when you want them too ( like right now) but things will.

You have been beating yourself up for long enough. Try and float give your mind a break, Just breath
