This isn’t a normal foodie post, mainly because I have been suffering from a touch of writers block.

Due to some recent changes, I have been feeling incredibly overwhelmed lately, and not taking enjoyment from things I am normally so passionate about- cooking for example. Instead of forcing myself to get writing, I have decided to take a little break.

Anxiety is an issue I have experienced since my early teens, and recently it has begun to takeover my life some what. Basic daily tasks have become a struggle. In order to fix this, I am taking some time for myself, leaving social media to a bare minimum, and trying to focus more on uni.

But, it isn’t all doom and gloom, I got to uni AND to the gym today, which is a good step in the right direction. Tomorrow I aim to tackle the shops on my own, something I haven’t managed for the past 3 weeks.

I am open about my worries and concerns and actively seek help from friends and family, but many people prefer to deal with their problems alone, meaning things can escalate quickly. Be there for the people around you, be kind, and be open.
