what did you used to do before you got off the wheel, Paloma? And what do you do now? Did you find the transition a challenge or relatively easy? I ask because... I have been considering getting off the wheel for some time now... I'd love to do something different... but I just wonder how I would fit in the transition. !LUV

I would give to write a book. 😂
He worked in an association with people affected by stroke. They took advantage of me and I didn’t know how to make myself respected.
I ended up sick, with anxiety and depression. Instead of helping me, they all ignored me. The company, the doctor, the psychiatrist of the labor mutual. They told me that I would go over working, when I had continuous panic attacks.
I had to resign without compensation, no subsidy or help. Since then I live on my husband’s salary and our savings. Thank you that we have always saved a part for what could happen.
The transition was very hard. I ran out of self-esteem, I hated myself and could barely go out on the street. I thought it wasn’t worth anything, that it didn’t deserve anything.
Hive has been my hope to get out of that hole. Here I find a reason to get up every morning. I know it’s a very long road. Also that my income will not look like what I received when I worked for others. I don’t expect miracles either, I just aspire to be able to produce a complement to my home. If more came, it’s better, but I don’t look forward to it.
The past suffering has been worth it because it has brought me to where I am now and has given me the strength not to look back. I know where I don’t want to go back.
In addition, I have reduced my expenses and I have taken away everything superfluous. I have discovered that I really need very little to feel good. And that only being good with myself can I think of being good with the world.
Sorry for the mess, I hope you didn’t fall asleep reading. 😂 I only count here a very small part!
You can ask me whatever you want to know, dear Sam. !LUV youuu. ❤️

Oh my goodness, dear sweet Paloma 🤗That sounds like you went through a terrible experience; I can understand how that knocked you so badly 😔 Nobody should have to go through anything like that. But I am so pleased that you are no longer working in that toxic environment even though you were pushed, it sounds like it wasn't nurturing you and definitely not worth the pain. Please don't lose self-belief. You are an amazing person, a strong woman, and incredibly kind and supportive of those around you. I hope Hive brings you much joy and prosperity and maybe in time you find that role that you want to pursue again. You and @beeber have truly given me a lot of food for thought !LUV you too!!! 💗🙏
We all carry our backpack in our backs. Mine is lighter since I landed here! ❤️😘

Hi dear @samsmith1971 :-) this is also the reply to your other comment
Think in your children you already found important part of your ikigai! But If I read right between your lines, your actual job is far away from something you love? Thats Not good in a long run.
Reading @palomap3 s lines and looking at my actual situation, being healthy and staying healthy ist the highest good we can have.
Me too stayed too long in a exhausting hamster wheel. When I changed this 2 years ago I could do by decreasing my monthly bills. Now living in the family house again, having 2 rooms and my balcony for me is much more than most people on earth have. Though this is not the way most people think it should be in my age!
But it helped me to come from monthly 1500 Eur fix costs only for rent and insurances, down to 300 !
This gave me a lot of freedom. We often dont see how our western lifestyle causes the hamsterwheel.
Of course in this case having no children to feed made it easier.
Selflove, selfcare and as palomap wrote selfesteem, its so important to find and try to celebrate them in every Moment.
Really hope you find a way or another job so you get the Feeling life is great and Feeling totaly fine right now.
Thank you, Beeber. It sounds like you absolutely did the right thing for you. And it is so true... our perceptions of how much we need in the Western world to be comfortable, secure, and happy... is all a bit out of whack!
I have spoken up at work. Challenged some perceptions. Now we see where things go... either its a good thing and life at work improves exponentially and my flexibility payoff for my kids becomes worth it... or it goes pear-shaped, which is also a good thing because then I know I need to leave.
Much !LUV
