The recent medication changes has calmed my brain down. I’m still feeling caged up, I know my psych is looking at more frequent therapy sessions if we can get more under ED plan. Once a month sessions aren’t enough. It just feels like the traumatic memories aren’t ending, I’ve been in therapy for years. It’s taking so long to heal. I just want to get to the point the body flashbacks aren’t so regular

My day has been ok @creative_writer . Yes sleep ok and snoozed for 30 mins in the late morning.
Tired now and they still haven’t emptied my bin. Hot and humid outside here. Bedroom shut down to try to keep it cool for sleeping. Might have to use ceiling fan tonight. I don’t like it over 30 degrees. I have a low tolerance level for warm weather now. House ok so far.

No plans for tonight @creative_writer . Usual early dinner watch the news. Bed. Cool in my house. Got one door open cool breeze. Think it’s going to cool down even more overnight. Already eaten nothing exciting.
