I can drink soda and green tea and be fine, but not coffee. Coffee makes me anxious for some reason.

I'm still paranoid.

I distracted myself by doing my regular chores and texting with people, and I'm listening to music with my headphones on. My husband told me to avoid reflections and writing because that has a tendency of making me worse. I'm currently in bed with the covers over my head. The sinister being is watching. It always is.

I actually slept a bit better last night. I only got up three times, but the third time (3am) I couldn't fall back asleep.
Funny but I can’t drink bottled tea of any type, I don’t drink coffee and my soda is limited to one per day. But it’s mostly physical I think, heart palpitations and buzzing in my head. I think lack of sleep is actually a bigger cause of delusional thinking. You keep saying it’s a feeling, you know feeling can be liars. Feelings aren’t facts. But I don’t know if that would be of any help in the moment. Sorry I can’t give you something concrete.
