Ativan and therapy

Breath, yoga, noticing I have thoughts and choosing them wisely.

Okay the caffeine thing is big, but somethings sneakily ignored. Try weening off or a lower amount, if you’re like me sleep can be rough if you had anxiety through the day and evening.

So it’s a vicious cycle.

Need caffeine cause can’t sleep.

Can’t sleep because too much caffeine.

I suggest trying to ween off on a slower work week or take some PTO to “reset” your system.

Nature, exercise, yoga, breathing, healthy food, mindless tasks like cooking, cleaning, etc, doing smth for pure pleasure, not goal/reason driven, like massage, dancing, good company etc

I wanted to sell my home due to equity in it at todays listing prices and apparently if a single individual, any home that sells more than 200k over your original purchase price you have to pay a huge capital gains tax… now,if your married they give you a 400k differential and anything over that you pay capital gains. Ex. Unclear of why this tax law hasn’t been updated? Wow! It’s an extremely biased

Weird idea. Is there a way we could set up like a virtual work room? Like one where we're logged onto something like skype/messenger/Google meet/zoom/ZooRoom/Discord or something where we can all be working at night time, but at least not alone. It would mostly be silent, but misery loves company? I legit hate working alone for the whole day and then into the evening too.
