Since I quit my WFH job, things have just felt so much better. I do miss my afternoons if not having to work, but I’d rather have the peace of mind instead. I used to have stress dreams constantly, about my job, my life, everything. If I was worried about it, I dreamt it, and I was constantly worried about doing terribly at that job so I dreamt about it. But now, I actually have fun dreams. Just last night I had dreams about laying a bed completely covered by a tree with the rain falling all around us (it was raining last night, and I could hear it) and the night sky. My anxiety is still pretty bad sometimes, but it doesn’t feel anywhere near as bad as when I was taking phone calls for medical offices. I’m just glad I don’t feel so sad and bogged down by not being helpful or just telling people to call back.
I also played a lot of Magical Delicacy last night, and I think that helped with the dream ambiance since it’s a cozy game.
