journal
I am home from deliveries and just drank a big cup of coffee. Left at 350am got home
at 650am
Things are quiet here - I'll make lunch at 930a or so (idiosyncratic schedule here.)
Anyways, things are good!
Last night I was trying to sleep and had the energy of a titan - and had
to organize to know what to do that would help me sleep.
Before I pulled out my usual tool bag for coping I realized I was starting to look
big picture at the anxiety - about myself - ....
My therapist pointed out to me that I tend to pathologize my anxiety - rather
than just see it as something normal that I have to adapt to. Indeed she's
so smart...so I ultimately remembered that a snack helps me get to sleep.
I don't know if it's because I am hungry.. whatever the case.
I hope you guys are having a good morning. I need to reconcile the inventory left over
from the deliveries - ...I'll do that later today with my Pop.

I'm glad that your therapist helped you Mark along with a snack... Melatonin along with my regular meds helps me to sleep when I can't... I was surprised that it works as an over the counter med I didn't think that it would but it does!
Enjoy your coffee sweetie... Big hug.....xo
thanks Janet!
I have found that my seroquel makes me hungry at night .... even if I wasn’t before .... and I have to wake up and eat a few bites of cottage cheese. Then I remember reading about how cheese and how it functions with the brain is akin to certain drugs. Don’t quote me on the science - but I guess there’s a reason why I love fromage so much haha.
