The morning rage

The days I opt to not take my ADHD meds is typically the weekend. I like to lie in and taking my meds past 9.30 messes with my already messed up sleep. But argh those morning rages, where my mind notices every little thing that annoys me. Temper is short because everything is annoying me!
So what do I do. I take myself away to my sanctuary (my office) and I just be...
I went to journal (you lucky reader). The rage needs to be released...
Away from the husband and pets. Surrounded by plants and crystals. Surrounded by pictures on the walls of good times. I'm able to view my blackboard wall with inspiring quotes and pictures from friends. I'm watching my lava lamp which I love seeing the lava balls connect and fall back down. Silence...apart from the sound of rain pattering outside. A vanilla incense stick lit, to promote my calming environment. Salt lamp on to support cleansing the negative energy in the air.
Yet my heart is still racing, and my body is feeling tense. I can feel a headache developing...
I breathe in certainty and breathe out uncertainty.
I am a powerhouse, I am indestructible.
I'm grateful I got out of bed today...still in my PJS but I don't need to get dressed for anything today.
Self-care Sunday... what else will I do to look after myself today? I love looking after my skin so I'll give myself a facial and maybe paint my toenails.
Starting to feel better. I've a plan for the next hour. It's hard when the rage takes over... the abilty to think straight is hindered. I don't even know what caused it. I just woke up not feeling right.
My Neurospicy superstrength is despite not knowing why I feel a certain way, I am in control to do something about making myself feel better.
Heart rate is down, hydration may be needed for the headache and some light stretches should sort out the muscle ache. It's taken 40 minutes...
I'm going to be kind to myself today and probably do a lot of nothing!
