Dear DS diary,
The study guide for the PCCE exam arrived yesterday...(sigh). I want that certification, it's tailor-made for entry-level and early career paralegals like myself, but I really don't want the stress that has come with it. It feels like there is a mountain of things to do and with the way I handle pressure there it is much much more likely that another struggle period has already commenced and there's no stopping that train from leaving the station.
So I shouldn't have been shocked when the stress eating episode that I knew was coming but felt powerless to stop reared its ugly head last night. In an attempt to mitigate matters Amy suggested I just order a salad. I did, but it didn't stop me from eating the whole darn thing.
Finally managed to sleep through last night, but it was clear as day that the only reason why was because I was mentally and emotionally exhausted, and even then I woke up twice before falling asleep for good around 10:15 pm. Still looking for answers that don't seem to be forthcoming. It's going to be hard to prevent the cycle from repeating itself tonight. I'm not sure I can. It's like I have to start over now.
