Something that helps me:

So I’ve had anxiety and anxiety attacks for a little while now.  Not a ton of people know about it, but those who do are usually also suffering.  I recently came up with a metaphor that helps me.  For me, anxiety is a wolf.  

Sometimes, the wolf is calm and relaxed.  But sometimes the wolf gets tense.  It’s forced into a cage or it’s agitated or assaulted.  And when that happens? It only makes sense for the wolf to lash out.  And when that happens, it’s not about taking care of me.  It’s about taking care of the wolf and calming it down again.  For some people, the wolf can handle more than others.  But when the wolf does get out of control, it’s not their fault.  It’s the animal being an animal.  It’s what you do with the animal afterward that makes you a person.

Describing a perfect Saturday:

First of all, I sleep in, but not too much, and I wake up on my own (no clock alarm), rested and refreshed. My husband is in a very good mood. He makes me laugh a lot, and we make love. Then a nice shower while I listen to some music I love. We have lunch - rice, mached potatos (or homemade fries), some meet (cause he loves it), and there's fruit for dessert. We cuddle in the couch and watch a good movie.

We spend the afternoon doing nice stuff we like. He watches football (his favorite team is on and they win), practises on his drums, and reads for a while (he loves to read). I skype with Clo and she's happy. I don't have any assignment's deadline coming up, so I study Math just a little, no pressure, cause I'm not late on my studies. I Tumblr a little and Emma makes me laugh, I get lots of asks and I get to talk to all my fav Tumblr friends, it's so much fun. Oh look a new interview with Iain de Caestecker and he's laughing a lot. Meanwhile Samantha e-mails me and she's in a good mood and we talk back and forth for a while. Hubby calls me to show something he found on facebook - a new species of shark has been found! This day keeps getting better and better.

Then I get to read a little, and the book is great. But I have to put it away cause me and hubby are going out with some friends. As always, we listen to music in the car, and it's a good album - we didn't even argue about what cd we're gonna hear. It's a nice bar, with good music and good food, and the conversation is light and joyful - no talking about our jobs! We come home, and while he practises on his base guitar, I open my new box of Lego and assemble it. We go to bed and we just talk for like an hour, we can’t stop laughing. Then we sleep in each other arms (no insomnia). There, my perfect Saturday!

All those things have happened to me, but never all in one day. But perfect is perfect, right?

:/ sorry that happened, it seems like a string of really bad events. Hope you're alright, and I'm sending you good vibes!

Thank you! I am in bed now, so I feel cocooned in your vibes. They are much appreciated. <3

i hear a rumour that you're a cutie

IT IS TRUE THIS I CAN CONFIRM

I was wondering if, erm... well, your theme doesn't make liking and seeing the likes easy. Do you think you could change it for the weekend? Something simple that could make liking and seeing notes easier... Just a heads up, maybe you've thought of it already :)

That is an excellent point that I had considered and then slipped my mind. I’m gonna go search for something that might be easier.
