Joined an online Support Group

This is my first journal entry here but I've always loved writing. When I consider all that's going on in my life anxiety isn't that high right now.  I want to keep it that way.  I'm not currently seeing a therapist nor in any support groups so this place seems like a good fit.  I recently finished the arduous and extremely frustrating task of applying for retirement and disability.  The paperwork almost killed me!!  It was a nightmare for a while, deadlines, filling out forms, sending them to the correct place and the correct time.  I am legally blind so it was hard.  I did it though and now, hopefully, I'll have a break. This morning I listened to the news, which I usually avoid.  The Ebola thing is very scary to me because my daughter is a nurse.  They are ramping up for elections, there is no rain in sight, yadda yadda yadda.  Being retired is great but it gives me too much time to think.  I know there are plenty of tools to help me, and I've used them successfully in the past, but finding it hard to concentrate and take action.  I write lists....then lists of lists.  I need a secretary!  Oh wait, I was a secretary!
