anxious...


Some of my anxiety buttons were pushed today. A colleague's mother passed away Sunday and the calling hours/funeral is Thursday. I have a lot of anxiety about going. I also have my yearly physical that afternoon, so the scheduling is a hassle. But just as I was talking myself through the anxiety, my landlord called. He's coming over tomorrow to remove my broken couch and put up a bookcase for me. Now that sounds simple enough, but I'm a hoarder. Not so bad as the tv hoarders, but... yeah. Needless to say, I have a lot of anxiety about people coming into my home. I had to sort through a lot of stuff today. And progress was made. I'm determined to keep up with the de-cluttering.

Thankfully, I had therapy this afternoon and could talk about a lot of this.

"I'm a hoarder - kind of. I do have a lot of clutter
"I have a lot of anxiety about people coming into my home." - ditto

My high anxiety day is going to be Saturday. I'm going to the local fair and I hate crowds, so I'm forcing myself to go. I'm going with a friend to help relive the stress a little. It will be the first time I have gone to the fair since I transitioned

ah! one of those people. In my house, you can eat off the floor. In fact, there is so much stuff on the table it is necessary to eat off the floor.
