I'm having such a low day. I spent the day in bed abs had to throw myself in the bath where I burst into tears. Weirdly it felt good , I never cry

Hope tomorrow is a better day.

    Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that.
