I have a few factors in my daily environment that are supportive to me. The biggest support I have is my fiancé. Without him I would not be able to function on most days. I have recently begun my own journey with taking control of my health and although he may think I am crazy at times, he stands behind me. Whenever he notices I am overwhelmed or simply had enough, he reminds of why I am doing it and always says encouraging words to me.
Another support is my mother. Although we may not see eye to eye sometimes, mostly with the wedding planning, she always stands behind me and my decisions. I know that I can be very difficult to get along with at times and she is the only one that can tell me to calm down without making it worse.
Having two close support systems have helped me feel comfortable in my day to day life. I know that I always have someone close who I can approach and talk to whenever I feel upset or like giving up. Without these supports life would be very challenging. I feel as though I may give up on many of the things I am so passionate about if it was not for certain people standing behind me.
If I ever lost my two support systems, I would probably not be able to make it, especially my fiancé. I have never been as close with anyone as I am him. I am able to confide in him things that I have never told anyone else. He knows me better then I know myself and without him I would be lost.
The challenge that I imagined would be to live in a commynity that does not speak my language or I do not speak theirs at all. I would want the people I deal with to understand and try to help me get through the task of not being able to communicate with others. If I had my support systm such as my fiancé, I feel as though I would be able to over come this challenge and issue. Having him there as y support, I would have many benefits such as someone who would understand what I am going through, make me feel comfortable, and be there for me whenever I need someone. Without these supports in that situation, I probably would not be able to function and would feel very alone. Not having anyone around to help, almost isolates people and makes them fall into a depression which I feel is what would happen if I did not have those around me who mattered most.
