Toxicity

October 3, 2021 Genevieve O'ReillyLeave a comment

The latest trend in self-care is to walk away from those things that are toxic in your life. Whether that is work, people, family - if it creates issues we are advised to cut all ties. It seems to be such simple advice. It promises you that you won't have all those problems ever again… Continue reading Toxicity →

Heartache

July 27, 2021 Genevieve O'Reilly8 Comments

As a mother, I can attest that a child is both magical and heart rending. From the moment you know you have a life inside you, the weight of every choice, every decision is on your mind. You look at life with new perspective and second guess yourself constantly. Those baby years, before school. Where… Continue reading Heartache →

“Extras”

June 4, 2021 Genevieve O'Reilly1 Comment

For those following, thank you for the patience during our interrupted broadcast. I am on the mend, and life is feeling better. I read somewhere that we feel like everyone else is an extra in the feature film that is our life. We don't appreciate or sense that they probably feel the same way about… Continue reading “Extras” →

So what’s positive about depression

May 11, 2021 Genevieve O'Reilly5 Comments

It is easy to get stuck in the spiral that is depression. Hell, I am still working my way out of this particular hole. The days are both long and short and fraught with the feeling of being overwhelmed. I am cracking and breaking and still I take on more and more to find some… Continue reading So what’s positive about depression →

Finding acceptance

April 30, 2021 Genevieve O'Reilly2 Comments

I had a breakdown - a very private, very quiet breakdown - and it has taken time off from work, and a lot of reflecting to realise that it did happen. Usually R would be the first to know, and I know he will read this, but this time I have kept it quiet. The… Continue reading Finding acceptance →

2020 keeps on taking

December 27, 2020December 27, 2020 Genevieve O'Reilly4 Comments

It has been a roller coaster of a year. Seriously this is going down as one of the strangest and uncomfortable year of my life - unless 2021 wants to see if it can best 2020. Let's do a little recap until we get to the last few days... January in Australia was like no… Continue reading 2020 keeps on taking →

Blah, blah, blah

July 25, 2019 Genevieve O'ReillyLeave a comment

I wonder when I became this blathering, bitter, twisted person? Ok, that is a little harsh, but it certainly feels that way. I can't seem to find peace in my head and everything I do seems mired in some sort of bog. No fucking forward movement. Of course this means I need to dissect EVERYTHING.… Continue reading Blah, blah, blah →

F is for family – or so I’m told

July 22, 2019 Genevieve O'ReillyLeave a comment

It has been quiet around here for a while, and then suddenly all hell broke loose. It hasn't been exactly sunshine and roses in this house, more like storms and thorns, but this weekend proved to be the cherry on the cake. Thursday was not a good night. R and I ended up arguing again… Continue reading F is for family – or so I’m told →

Balance

July 10, 2019 Genevieve O'ReillyLeave a comment

It is easy to lose balance when work and life each have demands that take up a lot of time and energy. It takes you to a point where a light push of wind in either direction will mean you fall and fall far. At the moment, my internal resources are pushed to the limit… Continue reading Balance →

It’s not easy

May 13, 2019 Genevieve O'ReillyLeave a comment

When we choose, and note I use the word choose, to live a life that is not the same as our upbringing, that is not the same as what society deems as normal, we choose a path less travelled, actually it is usually all new territory. It is not easy when you do not have… Continue reading It’s not easy →
