Even though I don't commute much or get stuck in traffic, I think I need to start thinking about how to make those kinds of situations more appealing. Take care of myself, even if a little at first. Right now because of my anxiety even the thought of the simplest tasks can be crippling so I take even just a step towards it and take my time. But when I get better I need to be kind and thoughtful to myself and find a way to make activities more enjoyable. This may help lessen or prevent depression. The problem in life is often that we don't have time to take care of ourselves, especially if we have demanding careers and young children, a family and home to take care of. But I need to simplify and make myself a priority. Thanks for your thoughts, opened my eyes to some things. Need to try to remember to keep this in perspective. At this point, just trying to get my life back and keep hope.
