I’ve never been a big fan of New Year, it’s always felt like a let down – this may or may not have something to do with an ex boyfriend ending our relationship a few hours before midnight but that’s another story.
January has never been my favourite month either. It feels quite bleak and dark, especially after the Christmas decorations come down and before the nights start getting a little brighter.
2020 feels different though. For a start, I met my amazing boyfriend in January this year and it’s the first time I’ve ever felt an instant connection with someone. We’ve been together for 11 months – not an easy 11 months but I can’t imagine being without him.
This year, all I want is for my family and friends to be healthy and happy. I’ll keep on minding myself so I don’t slip back into the dark depths of anxiety and depression. I’m looking forward to the end of 2019 and the start of new decade. Bring it on 2020, I’m ready for you!
