It always suprises me how easily my fears grab a hold of me. I live on my own but with assisted living care (16 hours per day support via phone, a peer mentor twice a week and an assigned nurse whenever she’s on duty) and today the on duty nurse didn’t only stop a fight in our common room, quickly lowering my anxiety as he quieted down the two fighting men, but just now I called him while in a starting panic attack and he was able to calm me down with both poetic, scientific, and phylosophic advice. He knows how to make me feel at ease and while my heart still races, I feel much more comfort and happiness. I’m getting out of bed despite being exhausted as can be right now and I’ll be working on a blanket that I’ve been making. Wish me luck with exploring my home while ridden with fears
