Anxiety tonight, apparently. I do have an appointment scheduled for tomorrow morning with a doctor who suggested she might be able to assist me in finding a therapist I can routinely talk to, so that'll be nice, at least.🔸️

Appointment update -- the anxiety lasted well into the following morning, but I at least now have a list of places to call, and a working phone to call them from.

I'm aware that my value as a person is innate and not tied to my productivity, but regardless, I am hopeful that this will signal the end of this awkward 1-week-on/5-weeks-off pattern I've been nursing recently. 🔸️

Appointment Update #2: Successfully scheduled a meeting with an insurance-compatible psychologist for late January. Let's all take steps to improve our mental health in 2018, shall we? 🔸

@Lobst Congrats! I did a lot of that this last year, and it's done me a lot of good.
