Hello everyone!
I have been procrastinating this post since weeks now and I have started writing this post probably 10 or more times.
Everyone who knows me knows that I love Little Laboratory and everything it has become.
However… For me it’s time to move on. The past 1.5 years have been very tough on us mental health wise, and as some of you are aware I have lost my brother due to him ending his own life in 2014. This puts mental health into a particularly important position in my life as I am still silently grieving every single day.
England has its nice own positives, there is no doubt in that but the word "work - life - balance" seems to be non existent over here.
This is the impression I have been getting over the years from various other settings, institutions and people.
After months of debating how to improve our own family situation, I had to do what’s best for us - initiate the way back to Germany. As I am writing this I feel extremely sad and I am still so unsure about everything, all I want is to keep my loved ones safe and with me.
Unfortunately this means I won’t offer any services for the foreseeable future, as my moving date is mid January.
My emotions are all over the place, and I am not entirely sure what to do with this company, but I am sure I will figure it out once life is a little more settled again. ❤️
For now, my Christmas events are the last ones I have scheduled.
For those wondering why I am so honest about private details - because being silent is what killed my brother. Getting other family members and friends involved in serious depressive phases rather than keeping it a secret because you’ve been asked to do so may be what helps a loved one through that one, very dark day.
