I really want to get a cat too. The problem is, I live with my parents and my mom is allergic to cats.

Do you have insurance? Would they pay part? I remember when I was looking at IP's before I got put IP involuntarily....there was a really nice one like in Malibu CA but it was $30K. That's 3/4ths of what I usually earn in a year, though this year will be less than that because of all the furloughing. But too bad because I probably could have really benefited from that IP.

Yeah I have insurance. Just not sure yet what they will pay. I guess step one is to talk to the financial counselor at this IOP before I make any decisions.

Going for a hike with my mom. She should be coming home from work soon. I'm making sure that she takes her beta blocker and eats something, drinks water...

Then I'm gonna start reading 1984. Until then before that, I'm gonna research about it on the webz.

I hope I don't panic tonight.. I smoked a bit of weed to relax because I did that yesterday and didn't have a panic attack..

The mind complains about the mind

When you have a mind attack, use the storm to learn more about the self and to understand the ego.. Then it lessens and lessens..

I gave in and made a mug brownie. 4 whole days without sweets isn't bad though, maybe it will help me learn to do things in moderation

Just spent a ton of time waiting for the call from someone from the financial department from the IOP and she hasn't called yet. I also skipped a commitment that I have today. Now I am feeling bad about doing that. I just don't see myself getting better unless I have more support, in whatever form that may be. I have zero social life. I am isolated. I am not able to work really. I cannot really do grad school too well. I am usually kind of angry with my parents. I am impulsive. I spend too much. I have goals but feel like I cannot reach them. I hope this program doesn't cost me a ton.

Just read the paper, 1984 is already come true. Up is down. Our Covid response is perfect! The post office must shut down!! It is for our own good!

Almost done with the first episode and it seems like a murder mystery

Ever since I started working I feel like I’m hear snippets of convos about me....pretty sure it’s related to psychosis more than actual convos.....

Work stress gets to me sometimes and I feel that people are talking about me.
