Alright already! With being on meds, you’d think I would now have a tool that would help me straighten up my life a little bit and even out some kinks. So I’m going to try. And here is a list of things that I want… I have the power, to change.
I was telling my therapist, last session, that it doesn’t really matter who’s fault it is for screwing me up (people or genetics), because it’s my responsibility to fix myself. She reworded that for me.. she said, I have the POWER to fix myself. I liked that much better.
So here are some things I want to change about myself:
- Stop Cracking Knuckles – I’ve done this since I was in my early teens and I really want to stop, cut I don’t know how.
- Stop picking – yeah, I pick scabs and things, and my cuticles, and I want to stop that too.
- Stop fidgeting – I fidget a lot, I want to just sit still.
- Eat Better – my eating has really gone downhill in the last couple months. I’m up to 158 pounds, my low was 147. So I want to, and have the power to, eat better.
Dang… now I’ve forgotten other things. Work on my anxiety is one, I think… but I’ll think some more and edit this post when my memory comes back. I really do have a selective memory sometimes, I think.
On this day..

My anxiety gets in the way of me writing it down. I have it sketched out, but I need to put more detail in to that sketch I have written down. Anxiety again.. pisses me off. But I’m working on it.
