Not feeling great this evening. Low/anxious. Thinking of taking some sleep meds in an attempt to get to sleep earlier than 2am. Maybe improved sleep would lead to improved mood…?
Hmm. I’m enjoying this Stephen King short story collection, but he really should not try to write British characters who use “British slang”. It’s pretty cringe
After a long morning of loading the POD, stuffing the car, cleaning, scrubbing, double-checking, all on very little sleep… we’re off! #Canada here we come.
I’ve just booked to see a live broadcast of 42nd Street from the Theatre Royal at a local theatre. I’m going with my bestie. She asked her partner if he wanted to come and he sneered at tap dancing. Well he clearly doesn’t know what’s good. Fool. It’s a matinee, so we are going to go for a lovely brunch first. It will be great girls’ day out

I never had any side affects from the birth control I used. I had heavy painful periods & needed them for that after my child bearing years. Women need them for so many things besides preventing pregnancy.
Guess what, the visit from the social worker was FINE 🙄 We agreed she doesn’t need to see me again, the issue is not depression anymore but anxiety, confidence, feeling differently about myself and what I want to do with my life. Seeing a uni counsellor tomorrow for that stuff
I just saw a train go by and the cars did not have big open doors on the side. I've watched enough movies to know that trains are supposed to have empty cars with big open doors so you can run and jump the train, and then reach your hand out to your companion as they struggle to make it and just barely grab their hand and help them onto the train. Everyone knows that's how it goes, yet the train I saw had no open doors! Come to think of it, I've never seen an open side door on a moving train!!!!
Had a lovely time with my Twitter friend. She’s a professor of psychiatry who also suffers greatly with major depression. We talked about my PhD. I said I’d been looking at other jobs. She didn’t say, “Oh you mustn’t give up!” and she understood what I meant when I said I just wanted to do hands-on research as was questioning whether I really wanted to write a thesis. She’s a really good egg
