Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I've basically been practicing social isolation my whole life. This is my time.

Me too. I came into this thing already an expert.

I'm about to go hug and cuddle the stuffing out of Matilda for the first time in two weeks.

Oh. Tears on my face.

some of those numbers are us

Different tears. I'm so sorry, JZ.

Which is freaking huge because in the past this level of anxiety wouldn't have even registered with me as being anxiety it would have just been my normal. In the past I would have gotten to the point of almost being barely able to function and also super anxious that no one would believe I needed help.

askye, you've made amazing admirable progress and you deserve to be proud of yourself.

This all could have turned out so differently. It didn't have to be like this.

It really didn't. I hope that fact is not forgotten. Under all the anxiety, I'm really really angry.

But in better news

Happy birthday, Amy!!

Thrive to spite them

I talked to the meds person (I can't remember if she's a nurse or a PA) and she is going to prescribe hydroxyzine which is an antihistamine that works as anti anxiety and for insomnia. Which is good because all the pollen came down in our yard yesterday so I'll get a triple threat. ' and that Some Good News must have a lot of pollen because my eyes are really watery right now.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Happy birthday, Amy, and belated hugs to Tom. I'm so glad both of you were born and our lives have intersected. How improbable and wonderful!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Happy birthdays Tom and Amy!

JZ, I wish there was something more I could do for you and your family.

Happy Birthday, Amy!

This is also my mom's birthday. Wish I could take her out to dinner, but I'll have to settle for eating pie slices from across the room.

Happy birthday, Amy!

Oh, JZ. I'm so sorry. It would be hard enough under ordinary circumstances, but this is just a big pile of awful on top of that. Be kind to yourself, and know you have been a good daughter. {{hugs}}
