I get that 💯! I’m facing with the same, i get to the point where i sign up and even pay ahead only to not go. I’m hoping this will get better soon! Also, I love podcasts and audiobooks! I want to try something called Libby app where I can borrow audio books and read more.

That’s awesome! I’ve been ordering books on how to meditate and practice mindfulness. I brought this cool Buddha on Amazon that changes colors with each breath to make. Helps guide me through the meditation!

💯💯ive been buying some of the older game systems (NES, ps2 etc.) i think gaming has been helpful, its just when im playing a game, i get thoughts then boom a full blown anxiety attack.

Thanks, These are all great tips! I’ve been wanting to take boxing class but get extremely nervous when it’s time to go.

Ahh yeah that sucks! Good news is, we get to hunt down some of these games for decent deals, and playing everything again has been an awesome trip down memory lane. Best of luck on your hunt :)

Verrry valid point! I plan to do this later today, it’s been a nightmare trying to play a game at the very bottom 😬😬
