And I do mean little because this morning I slammed my fingers in the crease of a garage door and the typing struggle is real.

Here's the thing:
This morning has gone wrong in all the ways. See the above, but also sending my car keys with my daughter in her backpack, having to hitch a ride with my son's therapist to my workout, doing a workout with fingers swelling up like balloons, and coming home to find the fastest rejection ever in my inbox for an essay it took me three years to build the courage to submit.
Before you think this is a list of complaints, it isn't. I could be mad or anxious right now. I am neither.

I tracked down my keys. I made it to and through and from my workout even with balloon fingers (because I love love love split jerk), and I'm already planning the next place to submit my personal essay.
I've got this. And it's in no small part because I chose to put my mental health first. Starting a prescription was a hard choice, but it was the right choice. Evidence: I am not in a tailspin. My week is not ruined. I have had zero panic attacks today. I am still writing.
Whatever your struggle, I hope you keep showing up for yourself and making the hard choices. You deserve the care.

First I hope your fingers are better now, I am fascinated by his way of overcoming physical pain to mental relief and you have succeeded in doing all my congratulations.
Thank you! They are still quite swollen, but it's all bruising. I can almost type normally which is a very good thing for a compulsive writer!
I loved this! I hate those kinds of days but triumphing over them victoriously feels so damn good!
YES! It's amazing! :)
So happy you are finding relief! Glad it is turning out to be the right one!
Me too!
Gif game is on point as always. <3 Hope the fingers heal quickly.
I thought of you whilst selecting. ;)
Thank you for your incredible example! I'm glad you made it through these challenges <3
