Back to therapy

I have been thinking similar- flashbacks/ nightmares / poor sleep having to revisit with Dr and change of meds / because I was recently triggered - that said it hasn’t lasted and has subsided quicker than in the past- the volume is a bit lower - I really get when you said Grateful Humbled and...

Unusual: I having a I don’t care moment- literally thinking just about the song listening to- razors edge by goanna Think I need more moments like this - rare!!!

I get the running on fumes- lack of sleep, flashbacks/ the daily grind yea it’s wearing- I’m currently having a coffee outside doing a FTW moment (f*ck the weight) stopped coffee / breathing/ trees: do it again- then back into it- sometimes forcing a break from the grind helps- be good to yourself…

I was going to ask if you had a dog either way they really help me out with mood / outlook / depression- I find getting out of bed really hard- try making the bed as soon as you’re up - job done , helps me with motivation to continue the day idk- I find it helps….regards
