You don't have to say things out loud if you don't want to. I'll start it tomorrow then.

They have DBT and anxiety workbooks books cheap. I'm not a "reader". Getting the book T recommends seems like a waste because Idk how long I'm staying with her. I'm not convinced I have anxiety. I'm going to talk to my husband about getting it.

I don't feel I have a lot of rules/ no's. Please understand that I say what I say out of caring. I take everything everyone says out of kindness and caring, I'd rather Someone go "Hey, L your ****ing up x,y and z." than just going "maybe look at x,y,z."

Make that call first thing tomorrow, ok? I really don't want to call about a stupid sensation that's bugging me, that she already knows about. I think it's akathisia. I may call the med line (they don't respond right away)
To me, you definitely sound like you have anxiety. I don't think you have to be ''a reader'' to read a page a day of a DBT or anxiety workbook. I too put up road blocks to changing certain things. Reading for 10 minutes a day if you don't already do so seems like a very achievable goal to me. Did you ever watch the movie ''What about Bob''... its one of my favourite movies, its very funny and I recommend it if you haven't watched it. Bob always talked about ''baby steps''
