Recovering Perfectionist

I am embarking on a journey to live a life that I don’t ruin. This will be a recursive process, as all recovery is. I’ve learned that while my perspective is under my control, my anxiety and depression will always be part of me. I want to love all parts of me, even this part. My anxiety and depression center around my all consuming need to be absolutely “perfect”- or at least to appear to be doing as well as I can (at all times). Let me tell you… Trying to be perfect is exhausting. It is an insatiable feeling. Humans are inherently imperfect. This blog is me trying to break my “need” for perfection. I hope to grow into myself. I hope to become perfectly Ana, not perfect. Let’s laugh, mess up, and love each other! Hang on for the ride folks…
