Today was a bit of a rough one emotionally. I spent a lot of time feeling guilty, overthinking, and wanting to isolate myself, which is usually where I end up getting stuck in a loop. This was all before 10am and honestly the past few days have been as rough as this too and ive been exhausted due to nocturnal panic attacks. The win is that I didn't let that happen and noticed the loop forming before it could fully trap me I stayed active in the community for most of the day today, joined a live discussion room for about an hour, and talked with people. Even though my brain was trying to pull me into overthinking and isolation, I kept showing up. I didn't feel amazing while doing it, but I did it anyway, and I'm proud of that. I also find frequently that whenever im on here, wether thats comments on anyones wins, awnsering questions, just chatting or modaterating wins, Ive notived that my brain finds a semi-peaceful and productive place and i love it
