Hello, my friends and family! I hope everyone had an awesome and productive week this week. How are you enjoying the blog post series? I have been getting a lot of great feedback on this so far and it has helped some people so I hope to continue to do that for everyone. This week I got great news. I got an A and a B in my summer classes!!! I am super happy about that. Are any of you taking summer classes? I am also looking forward to a girls trip with my mom coming up soon and Khalen's birthday! I hope your week was as good as mine. Now let's jump into this weeks topic! This week we are going to gain some understanding on self-diagnosis versus a doctor's diagnosis and recommendations. We are also going to cover triggers, knowing your triggers and the importance of avoiding these for your health.  Self-Diagnosis: There is a misconception about self-diagnosis. Many believe that if you're giving your self the diagnosis of having anxiety or depression you ...
