SilverTrees, your post has been really helpful and I really appreciate it. 15 months of my life I went through a horrible time of abuse which has left me suffering with PTSD, Anxiety, and Depression. I am thankfully removed from that situation and I have wonderful parents and a great therapist who has been helping me since.

I do agree with you and my therapist that adding structure and a routine to my Summer will help me. It will only be a PT Job and working no more than 20 hours per week, as I still have my weekly therapy sessions to attend.

I have never tried mediation exactly, but I do like to relax to music. The two things I really like to do is writing in a journal daily as well as coloring. Those two thing really help me relax when I am anxious and my thoughts are roaming to the past.

I really appreciate the information you gave me.
