Hey! Guess what?! This week was actually better than last! Maybe I’m finally flattening my own emotional curve, though, I think we probably need a few more weeks of data to be certain. Oh, I was definitely still heavily dependent on my meds, there were tears, and more than a couple anxiety induced emotional-reset naps… but there were also more frequent good moments and I’m going to hold on to that. What spurred this shift, you ask? It was pretty basic, actually: I felt needed and useful. I fed my purpose.
