Some things are going well… and some things are not. But overall, I like the direction I am headed. I suspect this is all part of my plan.
At home, things are going very well. I am getting more done, and feeling better about it. There are still some anxiety management issues… and I am not going to let myself go crazy with expectations. I know the anxiety is here to stay – nothing magic will make it just go away. But I am more positive about managing it (at home) than I have been for a long time.
It’s getting out, and socializing that is not working. Once again, being more comfortable in what I am doing, may be making it harder to do other things. I will deal with them later. But I have got my hopes up about doing things with people a couple of times, only to have it fall apart. Crap…
BUT… one things at a time… right?
I still crash out a few times a week, but now about half the time I will read in bed instead of just hiding under the covers. Another improvement. I may read junky books sometimes, but SO WHAT!
There are times when I can get lost in my own activities – sure, it does not last long, but at least it happens. I try to pay more attention to these times than to when I am feeling bad – I am not doing very well at that. Things will get better.
