I'm thinking (again) about ending therapy. But then I worry that if I am in crisis then I won't have anyone to turn to except for my pdoc and he's $200 per session. Bleh. But I'm not sure I'm getting that much out of it right now. It's hard to find a therapist though. Maybe I should hang on to her. Idk. I'm back and forth about it. Trying to not make any rash decisions.

No I haven't. I think I need to work harder with CBT to help diminish the paranoid/anxious thoughts though

It’s not uncommon to do once a month maintenance therapy.....

Hopefully the brain scan doesn't find any abnormalities.

Woke up at exactly 12:00pm. Drinking coffee. Will have a shower, hygiene, do chores, etc.

The way I rearranged my room is really helping with dissociative panic attacks. I'm managing to be doing things or at least attempting + Not smoking weed or taking anything.

I need to post here more often... because even in PHP I don't understand their issues and feel like they're talking about frivolous ****. They don't understand psychosis.

The new apartment case manager called me to set up an appointment to meet next week. She seems nice. (this is a separate thing from my regular care manager, this one works here at the apartments)

I cut back on a lot of the sugar I was eating, not sure if I feel differently yet but we'll see, it's only been a couple weeks so far. I love looking up the different health benefits of different foods and learning about how to eat healthier and have a healthy body.

I just looked up the site. That seems cool. I may send one to my best friend since she lives in another state.

It's like me: Drug addiction - Hidden molecular psychopharmacologist potential
You: Bulimia - Hidden nutritionist/physical health potential

We must keep a healthy level within the fine line...

I spent an hour or so researching about MCT oil, ketones salts like beta-hydroxy-butryrate in the form of sodium, magnesium and calcium.. mmol/L of ketones.., different diets and types of foods, benefits, etc..

Anyways I took 5mg of olanzepine instead of 0.5mg alprazolam to see if it helps with my focus and impatience so I can go on Coursera without giving up due to stress...
