Self-Care

*Disorganised thoughts* (Dun read if you are

Self-Care is an impt part of a helping profession.
I've been through many many modules and courses, and most of them will include this into part of the material.
But I guess, it's not easy to practice it Successfully. No wonder our lecturers will always want to cover this portion of the coursework even though it means to extend the lessons.

Well, I am totally Unprofessional. *Not referring to work. I'm professional at work one okkkkk... :P

I'm not sure if i'm wrong though... since it's really not a Job per se. Juz like wat i've recently told someone tt we can't treat it like a job. So, where does professionalism comes in here?

But at the same time, inability to practice self-care is detrimental to the well-being of those whom you are helping, thus = unprofessional.

Ah, nevermind what i'm saying. I'm dwelling on the NOT AT ALL IMPORTANT school of thoughts. Shall leave it to the scholars.

The main point is, I have been too emotionally entwined with their well-being.
When one of their live is worrying, it can keep me awake through the night. But thank God it helps when I pray to fall asleep. On the contrary, when they make improvements, I'm perked!

It is getting unhealthy for the past few days. I've got to rethink and re-position myself.

Not to worry, or perhaps Sad for You that I'm not gonna quit.... although keeping the RADAR ON 24/7 is super duper tiring... esp when hiding and lying have been a norm for the current gen. You know, Dusts under the NICE Classy Carpet. It's saddening, cos they have no courage to tell pple they've got Dusts under their carpet.
Furthermore, there are still too many outstanding issues to be addressed... I KNOW them, but I'm still waiting for the right timing, and also confidence to lift those Carpets Up.

Enough abt Carpets... haha

My tone is slowwww and draggyyyyyyy when I'm typing this.

I think I need rest. I mean Enough Sleep. Got to work tmr. Zzzzz....

Sleep well, God is in control. :)
