Learning to just accept that sometimes I have bad days, and that's okay, has done more to help me than anything else. DH is very understanding too, thankfully. If he comes home and I (as a housewife) haven't managed to do more than shower and maybe do a load of laundry, he doesn't complain. He knows I sometimes need to just not do anything because I'm not up for it, and that I'll be more likely to be better tomorrow if I don't try to force myself to be "normal" today. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/respecting-the-funkits-ok-to-be-sad#post-2078877 Fri, 20 Feb 2015 16:06:00 +0000 MaryM 2078877@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p><a href="http://www.buzzfeed.com/macmcclelland/not-feeling-sad-about-feeling-sad?utm_term=.hkq4Ypo5R#.byBQqmG9xl" rel="nofollow">http://www.buzzfeed.com/macmcclelland/not-feeling-sad-about-feeling-sad?utm_term=.hkq4Ypo5R#.byBQqmG9xl</a></p> <p>This BuzzFeed article came across my facebook feed today. I thought I should share it here. </p> <p>It reminded me a lot of how some of us have discussed "respecting the funk" (feeling your feelings and not burying them). and I appreciate the assurance that it's ok to be sad sometimes. </p> <p>I hope you find this if you need a reminder of that :heart: </p>
