Anxiety/depression

[stormdog]

I am losing significant portions of time to feelings of fear and anxiety. I will make it through this MLIS. Hopefully it will even get easier as I go and reacclimate. But right at this moment, I'm essentially paralyzed by fear and anxiety. It's a familiar enough set of feelings that I know it will eventually reduce to a manageable level and I can get things done, but it would be really nice if I could just skip to that point. Which is, of course, what some of the goal of therapy has been for me; improving my general state of mind, giving me tools like focused breathing to get my brain under control.

There's also petting and brushing Seregil. That helps too. I'm going to do some more of that right now.
