I do that too, it's definitely a good idea

I hope you'll be home soon, and can curl up under your weighted blanket.

Just put in requests for 5 books and 3 DVDs from my library. Might as well stock up on stuff to read/watch. Plus I have ebooks as an option too so that's cool. They'll call me when my stuff is ready to pick up

I'm taking 3 walks tomorrow. One to the train station and back, one to family dollar and back, then just a short one around the neighborhood

I had a few drinks today while no one was looking and it didn’t make me feel better. Oh well. I shouldn’t drink anyway. I get obsessive about things.

I talk to my psychologist on Thursday get to tell her how my life is going.

Addictive and obsessive people have a great strength when they are addicted to/obsessed with something good - Then they become successful. It's a genetic advantage.

The world is just unnatural and heroin etc just hijacks the thing.

Same here. Alcohol makes me worse mood-wise and everything. Makes my anxiety worse too, which is somewhat paradoxical...

Alcohol gives me psychedelic flashbacks. Can't drink that stuff anymore. I haven't drank socially in 6 months.

I got asked if I want a beer today and I said that I don't drink - So I was given a lemonade.. Good stuff.

The meditation helped a bit!

I want to listen to short stories.. If anyone has any sources let me know..

I can't wait for it to get colder like a freezer - I think by fall, my fear of panic attacks and flashbacks will be gone and we'll all feel a little better.. Summer is madness...

I am not going to take benzos anymore. They make me feel strange. In a bad way. I mean I am more tired than ever and it's the morning, when I should feel motivated and like doing things. I also probably drink double the amount of coffee that I should because I'm on a benzo.
