Have a husband, 3 sons, two dogs, a house to maintain, and teach full-time . . . LOL. That kind of chaos passes the time very quickly. Just playin'.

Barring those kinds of distractions, seriously, find outlets for your time that get you out of the house and preferably around other people. I love book stores, so, with or without other people, I can get lost in a book store for hours at a time. Have a dog? Get into a routine of walking the dog at least once a day. Can you afford a exercise membership? Our city activity center is really very nice and quite affordable and has access to classes, swimming, exercise equipment . . .

Find things NOT therapy-related as much as possible. Try to spend time out of your head space.
