I was also talking to R about how there'd been a lack of continuity with therapy the past few months for assorted reasons--stuff around Dr. T's move, his last-minute vacation in July, my going to the beach twice, his being away now. (And, really, just my having been away parts of two different weeks in August in general, I guess.) And R said it seems like one thing that keeps me insulated is routine. I think there's something to that.

So maybe I need to set up some routines for myself that aren't so dependent on other people. I mean, obviously, things happen. But, say, if I figured out a good meditation on the Calm app to use when I first get up or right before bed maybe, that could possibly help. As that's something I could also do even if I were elsewhere. Some sort of physical exercise would be good to fit in there, too.
