I pushed myself a little too hard today. Didn’t sleep well. Slept about 5 hours according to my Fitbit. I woke up at 5am, at 6am I got on the treadmill for 30 minutes. Then I facilitated a coffee event in my building. Then I walked to the bus stop and took the bus to my new pharmacy which was stress inducing cause I have never been on that route before and I get nervous doing new things/going new places. Now I feel like my engine is running out and it’s only 1pm.
I’m hoping to take a couple hours to chill then around 3:30 clean my apartment some, practice violin and start cooking dinner. Hopefully my energy comes back after a couple hours relaxing. Like I feel like a wind up toy that ran out of energy. I kind of just want to lay here for the rest of today lol
Tomorrow I have a therapy appointment. I’m doing good for the most part. My anxiety hasn’t been too bad and when I dissociate or get anxious I’m able to use coping skills to deal with it. I started using that 54321 grounding technique.
My mood has been good and stable thanks to my meds and self care. I’ve been exercising most days. I find that helps my mood and anxiety a lot.
I don’t have much going on this coming weekend. Just my volunteer shift with the cat rescue. Other than that just the typical stuff. Exercise, clean, violin, spend time with my boyfriend, spend time with my kitties , and do my other hobbies.
Hope you all are having a good start to the week!
