I’m holding it together pretty well today. I’m currently sleep deprived, exhausted, depressed, overwhelmed, and anxious, but I’m holding my own. 😊

I think that I need to keep myself busy and avoid dead time. When I have unoccupied time on my hands, my thoughts can wander, and I begin to focus on the things that are causing me the most stress. Most of these things are well outside of my control, so fretting about them serves no purpose.

I’ve already been to the grocery store today and spent more than I wanted to, but we got to eat.

The rest of the afternoon will be relatively quiet, and I’m going to try and knock out two projects that I need to finish up. I know I’ll feel much better when they’re done and I can then move on to the next project.

I’m working on a ton of reviews but got backed up with recent events, and I’m trying to play catch up. I’m lucky enough to work with some amazing companies to review products that I’m very interested in. I want to keep moving forward, and that’s what I fully intend to do.

Today is one of those days where I’m struggling, but I’m also determined not to let things like depression control my life.
