You got this, girl!

We’ve all had one of those days that sometimes turn into one of those weeks. They seem to drag on FOREVER because the universe hates you (or at least that’s how it seems). Then just when you think it couldn’t get any worse ... it does, because why not?
Girl, I feel your pain on an emotional and spiritual level. I’ve been where you are and I KNOW what it’s like. Those days/weeks/months — even years — are the absolute WORST. They keep taking something from you, but never seem to give anything in return.
When your mother warned you about days like this, you probably never could have imagined just how bad they can get.
It’s easy to get weighed down by feelings of sadness and hopelessness and even easier to have zero motivation to get out of bed in the mornings.
Sound familiar?
I won’t tell you everything will be OK or that sometimes it has to get worse before it gets better, because I know how annoying those phrases can be when you feel like the end of hard times is nowhere in sight.
I’m here to remind you of what a BADASS woman you are, through and through. Seriously, you are a bona fide BADASS!
This is a shout out to you and all the other women out there who need a reminder that they ARE strong enough to get through whatever it is that they are dealing with. Don't ever doubt yourself!
You are a warrior, a goddess, and one hell of a fine-looking woman.
You can’t avoid your problems forever (believe me I’ve tried), but you also need to make sure you are protecting your sanity. So take a day or the weekend to wallow and avoid the world. Put on your warmest/comfiest pjs, eat pizza and chocolate cake and binge on your favorite show on Netflix all day. Or dance around your house in your underwear to your favorite songs.
Give yourself a break. Your mental health is no laughing matter.
And when life comes calling and you still don't feel ready to get up and face the day, here are 25 quotes that will help you to remember that you are capable of overcoming any feat that stands in the way of your happiness.
