Therapy actually wasn't a shit show.

I wanted to talk about the anxiety I was feeling about visiting Greg in January, particularly around food and body image. It's something that I noticed last time I visited - his wife does keto and is very strict about it, and I found that was triggering for me and raising all these fears and anxieties that he would see what I was eating and judge me for that.

We talked about how I can feel the dissonance between what I believe with my logical thoughts and what deep wounds I was carrying from childhood.

We talked about things I can do more short term to help make sure I enjoy my time with Greg, and then also made plans to start EMDR when I get back to reprocess some of the trauma I carry around food and my body.

I was looking for mental health screening tests that did not require collecting personal data.

Yesterday I found @divested has developed Kairoscope, website with dozens of questionnaires that run solely on your browser, zero data sent to anywhere else.
