Coming Soon!
I know! 3 posts in just as many days, madness! Anyway, just a brief post to say that I’ve got a lot of things planned out.
Photography As A Distraction
Since the last post I'm feeling a little better. I'm getting through the latest low mood. I've been finding distractions and little ways to feel better.
Drained and Exhausted
Drained and exhausted. Two words that sum up a depressive period.I've not been feeling too well the past few days which of course can have an effect on everything else. On top of that today I received some news which wasn't exactly welcome. Both of these things have brought about my most recent bout of depression and feeling drained.
Social Media and Mental Health
Nowadays we are surrounded by social media. Everywhere we look there are things pointing towards being online and active on various websites and apps. Whilst this can provide a positive outcome of feeling connected, social media can also have a negative impact on mental health.
Wirral Coastal Walk 2018
On the 24th June 2018 I am going to be completing the 15 mile Wirral Coastal Walk. I am fundraising for Wirral Mind, part of Mind, a charity dedicated to mental health support and advice.
Turning Point
Since my last post, "I'm not going out today", I've hit a bit of a turning point. I received some feedback and comments that spurred me on, that gave me a bit more confidence and passion. I made the conscious decision to not care as much.
10 years ago I would take the camera everywhere I went and snap away, coming home afterwards happy with whatever I had. Recently it's been quite the opposite. I'd go out, have an idea in my head and then be left deflated when that idea didn't come to fruition. As it stands, I'm constantly fighting with myself to do the opposite. To embrace what is already happening wherever I am. To be a photographer.
