Hey guys, hope everyone’s doing well.
I am currently quitting coffee for multiple reasons, I mean I’ll still have it once in awhile but just on special occasions. I was drinking 8 plus cups daily for years and stopped cold turkey 4 days ago. Had super bad headaches, nausea, and moodiness. Today I’m feeling a little better. It’s amazing how addictive it is.
Anyway, as far as mental health goes I’ve been dealing with a lot of panic attacks and paranoia. I’m trying to cope with that. When I next talk to my therapist I’ll bring it up.
I’m happy because the weather is finally starting to cool off a bit. I’m ready for fall and Halloween! 🎃
My sleeping schedule is frustrating me. I sleep like 10 hours or more a night. I hear my alarm go off in the morning but I get out of bed turn it off then get straight back under the covers and fall back asleep. I’m wanting to start getting up earlier. I know the simple answer is to not get back under the covers once I’m up but it’s hard when it’s so comforting. Maybe I can make something to look forward to early in the mornings that will help motivate me not to do that.
