Less at war

Normalising survival mode

I didn't know I did this until it was pointed out.

But many of us do this? Right. Perhaps, or not. I am unclear, I am also not a survivor although I know I am.

That identity is not for the likes of me, a one-woman power house who you want (need) on your team... except, it is, for me: a normaliser of survival.

Concentrate? No. Sit still? No, Worry? Yes, Catastrophise - most definitely.

You may have normalised this surival mode then. lets take a minute to work through the worse case scenario, decision fatigue, the inability to know how to make a decision let alone how to dress yourself and remember to brush your hair and what time the meeting starts.

You see it right?

That's just my normal, that is the reason they are like that then? Those babies of mine, at my wing, bemused by the most survival-moded of mothers.

Perhaps I may have normalised it. I see that now.
