My Mental Health update...

I've been away for so long trying to tame my mental health.As you probably know from Louises beautiful post last week, I haven't been doing to good... in fact I haven't been good at all for a while. My Anxiety is still really high but I feel a lot better. The past few weeks my anxiety left me in a place where I was feeling depressed and lacking confidence. I realised while trying to figure out the problem that I always trying to please other people.

A message to my hero...

Everyone in their lives has someone that they look up to, someone who they think of a hero. For some people, this can be a celebrity, someone who they don’t know but surround themselves with their music, movies etc and we feel their influence that way. For me, I have a few heroes who I see on a regular basis, and they don’t even know that they are one. One of my heroes is my Best Friend.

You deserve an explanation

Hi Guys,
Sorry it's late and the wrong day for a post but I've been away for a while and I just want to give you an explanation of why. Lately I have been struggling with content ideas. I made this blog centered around mental health and advice however over the months I have been adding picture posts, reviews, beauty etc. I love doing chatty blogs where I talk about anything on my mind and I want to do more of them.

I have a few things lined up and I hope to have my mojo back. I know this is brief and short but I just wanted to let you know why I was away and that I'm back. Changes are coming starting with the new name With Love, Emily and Louise x. We are both loving this new idea and it gives us more of a personal level with you guys. Louise is back on her blog and hopefully will write a post for us soon but for now you have me.

Thank you for being such amazing supporters. See you tomorrow.

With Love,
Emily x

Turning 20..

Friday the 16th of June was my twentieth birthday and turning twenty is an odd feeling. I have left my teenage years behind me and now I've got the beginning of my adult life. Turning 20 is an exciting time because I feel like within the next 10 years a lot of my life will begin. Only time will tell on what I will achieve.

Stop.. Breathe and start again..

Firstly I am going to start with an apology. I am so very sorry that I have been away for so long I have quite a few personal reasons.

Things that make me happy

I have taken the inspiration for this post from ouremptyjournal 's post 27 things that make me happy

We don't need huge expensive gifts and loads of money spent on us to feel loved and happy. In a world that often seems so full of negativity and materialistic, I wanted to share with you all some of the small things that make me happy! Happiness for me is inexpensive and sometimes so taken for granted.

Telling you the truth...

I try to write the happiest of posts but unfortunately this is not going to be one. I want to be as real as I can be with you reading this. I want you to know that I am not always as strong as I sound. I have times where I crack but I will always know that the cracks will heal with a little time and patience.

Friendship blossoms from bad experiences

Throughout our lives, we make all of these connections with so many people. Friendships change constantly through time. Shaping who we become which allows us to share experiences and stories with our new friends.

New Year, New Goals

Welcome Back!!!

After spending the past few weeks away I feel like its time to come back with a post based on my goals of this new year. Now I know that this post may not be aimed towards you but I hope you can take some inspiration from some of the goals I have decided to set myself. 

4 things I am loving right now

Lets talk about... Love

Now I am no expert on this topic and I can for sure say that I have had some good and bad experiences when it comes to love.

One of those days...

Do you ever have those days where it feels like there is no end? Well I had one of those days last week. Last weekend had a lot of bad things happen to family members that I love. It is all in the health category, both physical and mental. 

Open letter to... Anxiety

Dear Anxiety,

I never asked for you? Why are you here? You have made my life such a misery. You have held me back, Knocked me down and caused some major confidence issues.

New Beginnings: University Edition

So yesterday marked the start of year two of uni and I can honestly say I am excited yet very nervous for what this new year has to offer. With starting back I thought I would create a few tips for the people who have started their first year. These tips will be based off my experiences. 

New beginnings

With everyone getting their A Level results during the week I thought that I would help shed some light on those that maybe feel like they didn't do well enough.

It's the start of something new! 

Now to be serious life is full of missed opportunities, mistakes and failures but when you have the power to create your own lives like Sir Richard Branson, Simon Cowell, Kate Moss or Cheryl Cole. When you have a talent or a passion you thrive to excel in you will find a way. Whether it takes years or  months if you never give up on your dream that's the biggest accomplishment in life.   

These few months of either University, Apprenticeships or working in a career. These will all be the start of a very long and bumpy journey; And coming from a girl who failed her AS but had amazing A Level results at the end it shows that with a little bit of passion and who lot of hard work. You can set yourself on the right path. I can say for sure that things never come to you easy you either put in the hard work and passion for something or you don't and end up being disappointed at yourself afterwards. 

Never give up on your dreams just look for a better angle and everything will be fine. I promise. 

Failure does not define your success. 

Love, Emily xx
