I have never thought I will one day write about anxiety. I always thought of myself as super positive, always seeing the bright side of things. But i am only human. And these are not usual times.

Two reasons why I’m writing this post:

  1. To share how it’s really like for someone in my situation to be out of a job - hopefully to inspire some action for you today (as of what to do or not to do - maybe that’s for another post)

  2. For me to document this part of my life - so that these become stories i’m gonna tell and they become reminders of what I have been through and who I really am. (inspired by Alex Hormonzi)
