Hit me late morning
I was doing ok
Received unsettling news
Threw off my day
A nervous energy
On the edge of sanity
Holding on… barely
Trying to distract myself
Keeping good company
Chatting with friends
Doing small projects
Maintaining control
Is beginning to be
A new normal for me
It doesn’t work daily
Practicing is the key
Distracting myself from the nervous energy
Still teetering on the edge of sanity
I am holding on stronger and getting better
I want maintaining control to be my new normal
It’s ok if it doesn’t work daily
Today I am ok and got through it bravely.

Abbie, when it comes to the edges of sanity, good enough is good enough. And this poem is much more than good enough. Glad you’re having a good enough day.

Sometimes that is all you can do, Abbie. Just get through things bravely. I do wish life came with instructions or at least a blueprint. Each day you will get stronger and things will get better.
