Journaling is a wonderful coping tool! I bet you’d love this discussion started by a fellow mentor a few years ago, @gingerw.

It’s nice you have a little longer leash between appointments for now! I was reveling in that myself this year. I take that as a sign of graduation and a positive step towards freedom. Plus, several of my doctors, whom I’m sure lost sleep at night because I tested their brain power, are happy for the reprieve. 😂

Finding a good therapist can be really helpful to work through stresses, thoughts, coping… Hopefully you find someone who clicks on the first try. Have you tried yoga or Tai chi?

So agree with you in therapy! I was in therapy over 15 years and it proved invaluable to me.
You tickled me saying you tested your dr’s brain power. We must do this bc it’s being an advocate for ourselves & our loved ones. If drs cop an attitude about that then it’s a sign to move on. And, of course being a nurse can be annoying to some of them. 😂
But overall I’ve been lucky and feel like they work with me as a team.
Thanks for the info on journaling. Will look into it!
