I'm trying to get going but it's not easy. I did gather up all the trash and put the trash can out on the drive. That's an accomplishment. Other than that though I've been sleeping. I'm trying to psych myself up for taking a shower but I look at the calendar and the day is blank so it's hard to convince myself that it's worth doing. Sleep sounds so much better. I need to just get it done. I will feel better if I get my day going.
I'll do my walk later, after the mail is delivered. I feel like I have a purpose for walking then instead of just walking there and back.
I'm doing okay with eating today. I had cereal for breakfast and a banana for my snack. I don't think I realized just how much I was eating to relieve anxiety. Eating became an activity instead of just a function of daily life. I feel like I'm doing something when I'm eating and for some reason that calms me down. I need to use the skills I've learned and the lists I've made to deal with the anxiety. Eating doesn't really help. I feel just as anxious after I eat as I did before I shoved all the junk food down my gullet.
Okay, I'm going to go take my shower now even though I'm not wanting to do it. I just need to get it done. I'm going to try my best for the rest of the day to stay out of bed.
