Thanks everyone. I have been diagnosed in the past and I still take SSRIs. Yeah exercise is def good. I am a runner but am injured currently. So frustrating. I should think of doing other things.
Music is good; I am starting to get back into it after barely at all in the first month (could've been a trigger), so yeah I'll do more of that, find some new music maybe.
Last night I def used the 'This too shall pass' slogan, only it's linked to a chronic condition so there's an element of '... for now', but yeah I let it get me down by staying passive I think.
Such a good day today though, after a good sleep, and a great meeting to end it. I'm too much the perfectionist though (certainly obsessive; OCD is a main reason I still take meds): even when things are 90% good, I'll make sure to focus on the 10%.
I should be practising gratitude more, certainly. And finally getting to those steps... I at least am talking to people after meetings now rather than running away.
