I guess I should start journaling

I have no idea if this will be helpful for my symptoms, but it will probably help me organize my thoughts better. I finally got my head sorted out enough to feel like I could see a psychiatrist and know what I need to say. I've recently realized that what I thought was an overactive imagination back in my teens was psychosis, and I don't think I'm 100% done with it yet even though I haven't been bothered by any of the really stressful stuff in a long time. I should probably write about some of that, too, actually. I've had trouble letting go of parts of my anxiety because those parts aren't based in reality. I know that they aren't, and that feels like it should be enough to move past it, but it hasn't been. I have a prescription for an antipsychotic, so I'll see how that works. Hopefully it goes well and I can get back to moving past this.

Writing it out helps to sort through everything. Good work!
