I went into town this afternoon and ran a few errands and went to a few charity shops and bought a few things as if I’m a fully functioning, emotionally stable adult. So that’s progress.

Feeling a little brighter today. A bit less anxious. A bit more rational. Have managed to resist compulsions, etc. So my body has decided to give me a lovely dose of Costochondritis because I clearly haven’t suffered enough this week. 😞

I need something positive or at least neutral to obsess over. I might start a collection of something. I don’t know what. Time to trawl the bric-a-brac sections of charity shops. Would beat having a brain obsessed with all the ways I could get ill and 💀 . #OCD

I know I’ve got to be patient and give the meds time to work, but waking up feeling hideously panicked is not the best way to start the day and I really want it to stop. 😭

Palia *and* Animal Crossing updates??!! I’m finally feeling excited about something! Hurrah! Also, working from bed, which is not something I would normally do, has made work 100% more manageable this afternoon. I recognise how privileged and lucky I am to be able to do that.

Oof, went for a walk in the rain, which was impressively ‘self care’. But now I feel awful. Back in bed, listening to binaural beats and answering emails from my phone.

I think it’s very unfair that the weather is so shit when I’m already feeling so shit.

This morning the doctor increased my meds to a level that people online claim turned them into emotionless zombies (as if that’s a bad thing!). I can’t flipping wait! Bring it on, I say.

Have been to the doctor this morning. Cried at her. Meds increased - woah, I can feel that extra 10mg kicking in right now!

We cleaned under a dresser and 5 dog toys long presumed missing were there. My dog is going out of her tiny mind right now.

Going to attempt to sleep on my back tonight to see if that will help to unfuck my joints and muscles. I am a committed and long term side sleeper, so it’s going to be ‘fun’.

Barely anyone is going to see this, but if you’ve ever asked why X isn’t banned in the UK yet despite creating CSAM, it’s because the US government has enforced a worldwide policy of blackmail protecting the American tech oligarchy. It’s why TikTok can be banned but X cannot.
“Why can’t we have any regulations for US tech in Britain?”
Because the US trade rep has gone to every country including Britain and said if we regulate tech in a way that favours our people, industries and national interests, the US will bury us in tariffs and ruin our economy.

It’s a bit unfortunate that one of the local mental health organisations that runs a lot of the support groups round here is headed up by someone jointly responsible for my really poor mental health while I was in Sixth Form.

When I’m really struggling with the ol’brain, the house very quickly gets into disarray. So I think I might spend the rest of the morning tidying and cleaning to see if that helps to boost my mood. And if it doesn’t, I’ll at least have a tidier habitat as a consequence.

Big case of the Sunday Scaries and it’s only quarter past 10 in the morning. Back to work tomorrow for the first time since 23rd Dec, and I made the mistake of having a look at my inbox.

So be fair, I own everything in my house (though not the house outright).
I'm sad to have to reveal that the prophecy has not come true.

My brain is being a bit of a shit at the moment. Actually, that’s an understatement. It’s being an enormous shite and I’m about this close to asking the GP to refer me to a psychiatrist. Cos the current meds are doing eff all.
