Feeling stressed
I feel like I have bottomed out. I am supposed to go on vacation next week but I have too much work at the office and today I found out my uncle has passed away. I feel scared as well because I am dealing with some health issues...one of them concerning my acne prone skin. I need to change my thoughts to more positive ones. Not sure how to do that.

When everything seems to stack up count down to a vacation health items more work then you probably expected or wanted before time off and death in family ........ it is stressful just recapping it.
One day at a time do the best you can but do not beat yourself up for anything falling you can only juggle so many things before it all falls apart ........ give yourself a break and think if a co-worker came to you telling you all these things you would most likely give them a message of encouragement and telling them we can only do what we can do ..... but with ourselves we overthink / stress and cannot relax give your self a break this too shall pass.

Reframing our own thoughts takes time and consistent practice. Often, we're encouraged to identify what emotions are creating our thoughts - and understanding what our emotions are trying to communicate with us. Give yourself grace. You're going through a lot at the moment. Between loss in your family and work stress, and coping through your own body's needs... how you feel is understandable. ♥︎
Some questions for your consideration . .
💎 What are the emotions that surface when you have these unhelpful thoughts?
💎 What are some of these thoughts, and how would you like to challenge them?
