It also helps change things over which I do have some control. For instance- I cleaned up my house, did some spring/summer cleaning, had a garage sale- then I created a new office/den for myself. I have it set up just the way I like it.


I also sometimes feel self-conscious about the way I talk- so I looked into speech therapy and then started taking some acting lessons with an acting coach one on one. I'm memorizing lines and challenging myself with tongue twisters.

How quickly can you say this?

Give me the gift of a grip-top sock,
A clip drape shipshape tip top sock.
Not your spinslick slapstick slipshod stock,
But a plastic, elastic grip-top sock.
None of your fantastic slack swap slop
From a slap dash flash cash haberdash shop.
Not a knick knack knitlock knockneed knickerbocker sock
With a mock-shot blob-mottled trick-ticker top clock.
Not a supersheet seersucker ruck sack sock,
Not a spot-speckled frog-freckled cheap sheik’s sock
Off a hodge-podge moss-blotched scotch-botched block.
Nothing slipshod drip drop flip flop or glip glop
Tip me to a tip top grip top sock.

It's called About Socks by Dr. Seuss.
