I almost gave up on life
In 2014 my life was near perfect, I enjoyed school, got good grades, had successful hobbies and lots of friends. Then in December 2014 I fell ill with an ear infection which then led on to the diagnosis of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS). In the space of 6 months, I lost all the things I loved in my life before, and was left in bed, riddled with extreme fatigue.
It wasn’t long after this that I got diagnosed with Anxiety and Depression. I was only 14, I wasn’t able to live a normal teenage life anymore and spent all my time in bed asleep. I couldn’t go to school and be with my friends. I was very isolated and was eventually home schooled. I didn’t see the purpose in life anymore, and couldn’t understand why this was happening to me.
From the ages of 15-17, I suffered with an alcohol addiction on top of what I was already fighting with. As my anxiety was so bad, that I felt this was the only way to get rid of it. I couldn’t leave the house without a drink of alcohol. This addiction almost cost me my life when I was 17. I was later diagnosed with borderline personality disorder as well, which then gave me an idea about why my emotions were so extreme.
I went through years of therapy, M.E. Management Therapy, CBT, DBT and Alcohol Abuse Therapy, to name a few. All which seemed to have little or no effect on my symptoms. I just kept doing downhill, feeling like there was no way out and that my life was always going to be like this.
That’s when I started seeing a spiritual life coach, discovered spirituality and the law of attraction. THIS CHANGED MY LIFE COMPLETELY. In that year, my life blossomed and I found my true calling in life was to help others suffering from similar things to what I did.
In the years following to 2023, I changed my life and mindset completely.
I learned all about the Law of Attraction, Manifesting, The Chakras and used these to help heal my life.
By doing this I began living a normal life, with little to no symptoms, which I never thought was possible.
This allowed me to:
• Get a job
• Start a degree in psychology
• Get a Diploma of Higher Education in Psychology
• Pass my driving test and get a car
• Find my soulmate (we are engaged now!)
• Qualify as a Holistic Therapist, Chakra Alchemist and Reiki practitioner
• Start my own business
• Get 3 little living earth angels – my sausage dog puppies!
• As well as many other amazing things!!
Was it all easy? Absolutely not. There were hiccups along the way, but it’s the way we deal with these hiccups that makes all the difference when moving forward.
I just thought I’d share my story, to give hope to people who may be struggling at the moment, that there is a light at the end of the tunnel! If I can get there, so can you!
Thank you so much for reading! I’m really grateful!
Love and light
