I am going to need to get some makeup or something to look decent for seeing family tomorrow. I have a 7 am flight back home. Should be nice to see everyone, though.

Therapy this week was good. As expected, much better when I am feeling more 'baseline' as my therapist put it. She recommended I write a note to myself to read when I am having problems with my mood so I can remember it is not my baseline and I do feel better sometimes. She also thinks a lot of my attention issues are anxiety related and that I underestimate the effect anxiety can have. Might be accurate, I also kind of think I have the issues even when not anxious, just not as severe. I told her I was going to look into the testing with my psychiatrist to rule things out.

Oh I ran out of gas this morning (need to get myself together haha) and then had to call AAA at my job. Not the biggest deal, but left me feeling a little extra frazzled and was pretty embarrassing.


Sending compassion to everyone!


Have a safe flight and enjoy being with your family

Everybody runs out of gas at least once and feels embarrassed lol

I agree writing a note to yourself is a great idea !! I should probably do that too, thank you for sharing this
