It’s an Anxiety day.

This is a picture of the Siamese cat Coco playing in a box as she pops her head out. She disappeared inside a second later. I felt like a cute kitty picture would contrast this post. — This is a picture of Coco playing in a box, as she pops her head out. She disappeared inside a second later.

I just have to accept this.

I’m having one of those days where I’m too anxious to do anything. I woke up at my usual time of 5 am. I had a little less sleep than ideal… About 8 hours. With REM (rapid eye movement) sleep.

It’s one of those days when you wake up anxious.

I need a mental health day. (I did take a mental health day off work.)

Anxiety is telling me: “Dude. Rest. It’s not the time to figure out why. Your joints hurt, and your back aches. You need rest. You’ll figure it out.”

You’ll be better tomorrow. It is just one of those days. It’s been a long time since one of these days. I’m grateful and frustrated. It’s simply not a productive day. This is your best today.

Dude, I see you overthinking. You know where that leads. It’s okay not to feel well, and I need rest today. You’ve been doing great in life. Rest is important. You got this.

Today, be a potato.

Such a sweet kitty. 🐱 — Coco, in a paper bag, playing. Sometimes, she moves from a box to a bag, to play in a different spot. I’m grateful you are so lovely, Coco. Such a sweet kitty. 🐱
