Aww thank you @Anastasia ๐Ÿฅฐ 

And yes wouldn't it be great if we were able to beam ourselves in to our friends in need. ๐Ÿ’ž

 

I'm okay, just my anxiety has been peaking the last couple of months. And I haven't been able to bring it under control myself.

 

Just the usual PTSD high anxiety stuff. I am not sleeping, waking every hour. Heart rate over 100 consistently, feeling the heartbeat in my throat basically.. My GP picked me up on it last month when I was there for flu Vax. I dismissed it saying I had just been for a brisk walk with Hannah, who I had with me. But truth is, I hadn't. It's anxiety!

 

Anyway I figured it was time to bring the experts in to help out. So I rang for an apt with my psychologist last week, and saw her yesterday.

 

She has given me some tips on sleep hygiene. It can be cruel at times. And a few other pointers. And a good debrief, since it's a while since I've seen her 

 

On a good note, Hannah came with me. She was a big hit with everyone she came across ๐Ÿ’—. I am very lucky, she is an adorable little girl ๐Ÿ•. And she behaved perfectly for the hour and a quarter that I was in my appointment. Just layed quietly on her mat at my feet. ๐Ÿ˜
