My bedtime prayer when I was in elementary school through middle school was for God to “help me be a good girl.” My mom taught me that prayer. And when I eventually moved in with relatives, she reminded me, “Be good.” I know she meant well, but I went from being a free spirited kid to a depressed teenager and jaded adult. “Being good” is a prison in trying to escape. “Being good” often means not speaking up, taking up space, or upsetting other people.

Due to 13 years of narcissistic abuse that included daily meltdowns of rage, my adrenal glands were stuck! They were constantly running and pouring adrenaline into my body! I had gained so much weight that I could not take off. I'm happy to say I am two years out of that relationship and in a peaceful atmosphere! The weight has been sloughing off consistently and all the pain and illness that I had in my body left! I have learned to say no! The biggest NO of all was saying no more of that fake marriage and abuse, saying no and leaving for good.

I was supposed to meet my sister, who does not like to be disappointed, for lunch and an event. BUT...I was suffering that day with a UTI. I thought and thought about canceling but just wasn't sure if I needed to. Long story short, my body made the decision for me loud and clear. I texted her my cancelation and I'm so glad I did. I needed to be home in loose, comfy clothes. I needed to rest. Turns out she was very understanding about it. I'm so glad I took care of myself and I'm proud of myself, too 🙂.

"If you don't know how to say no when you need to, your body will say it for you in the form of illness." ..that struck me.
