I tried a few techniques my T suggested in the morning and i think I did a pretty good job of lowering my anxiety.

I then went to the gym and had a good workout, and I managed to kind of keep my anxiety in check. Oddly, when I was working out on my own, my anxiety went way up and I couldn't get a handle on it.

Later in the afternoon I had to go shopping, something that causes a lot of anxiety for me. It's just groceries, but I have a hard time with it. The anxiety got away from me and I broke into a cold sweat with a racing heart. I calmed down after I got back home.

So a good start to the day with the anxiety but not a great end. It's ok. I think I made progress, even if it was just a bit.

I'm still depressed but maybe that'll improve as I get better at managing my anxiety.
