I’m going to work on my latest knitting project, look at books, and watch some cheesy programming, in that order.

 It would be like reliving my childhood.First impressions can also be wrong, as I've had that experience too. But in this case I think my gut is right. I'm looking for emotional maturity in a friend. And now I know what to look for, unfortunately through past painful experiences.

I've been chatting with my sister. She and I are facing some of the same issues. We created a 6-week Self-Care Plan.

Very large triggering events have been happening in my life recently and I've coped through them well. I had to look to the stars and say thank you for that.

I played my game today and talked to ChatGPT. It all helped me feel calm.

I’m telling myself that toxic positivity is deeply embedded in American culture, going back centuries. But I don’t have to go along with it. Ironic, given that it’s also an individualist culture. Yet we slap a smile on everything. It’s not culturally acceptable to express “negative” thoughts or feelings. But I do it anyway.
And I have to process things, even good things. The landlord wants us to start paying online. I’m anxious about it as I hate technology. More terms and conditions, another privacy policy. So I’m processing THIS.  ——— Sent from my iPhone __________________ Call me "owl" for short! Hmmm....looks like some good tips in here. "Okay, enough photos.

Reminding myself that as bad as it is in my current office, it would be worse in the office I was in before. Also being glad I’m at this job and not the job I had before.

I’m in a depression slump. It feels like it’s been a while since it’s been like this. It’s definitely not as bad as it has been in the past, so I try to hold onto that. But it only works for so long.
I’ve been spending all day in front of the tv. Bingeing shows n going back to bingeing food. I don’t know how to access the part of my brain that can communicate n talk about my feelings. I officially lost interest in it today. I also found myself irritated while listening to my husband talk about troubleshooting some issues in his creative passion. Usually I’m eager to lend an ear, but tonight I just wanted him to stop. It was difficult to feign interest. We are always really supportive of each other in our creative endeavors. He’s brilliant. I hate that I felt such irritability tonight. I’m so frustrated with my depression creeping back in. I should just be grateful it’s gotten better over the years, but when I’m sucked back in enough for it to derail my life |

Didn't cope too satisfactorily today, felt combatant for too long. But did what I needed to.
