Sorry for being so prolific today, but Beloved just sent me this article, and I’m only halfway through, but I know, with absolute clarity, that many of my pocket friends will resonate. #ennui #burnout #TechExistentialism #SelfSoothing https://www.noemamag.com/why-is-everyone-in-tech-so-sad

When I’m overwhelmed, I imagine I’m talking to my 5-year-old self. I wouldn't yell at a scared kid, so I won't yell at myself. "It's okay. We will get through this." 🧸 #InnerChild #SelfSoothing #BipolarLife

I have to meet at least 6 new people today.
I am giving myself pep talks because the social anxiety has crept in.
I'll get through this discomfort(repeating this personal mantra).
Sweaty hands, shaky nerves & all, it shall pass. -
A whole lot of things are going badly wrong in my life at the moment, so I will write about three good things that happened today in an attempt to cheer myself up:
- My son sat the ACT test today and felt that he had done well.
- I was in a library earlier where I had the pleasure of watching the Music Core stages of Kep1er -- Shooting Star, Nicole -- 5!6!7!8!, and ARTMS -- Virtual Angel. All three songs hit the spot with me, and today I was particularly taken with the Kep1ian audience's vocal support, Nicole's disco strings and male dancer, and Choerry's mauve minidress and silver stiletto heeled boots.
- I was fascinated to learn more about C17 French political thinker and librarian Gabriel Naudé. I am both attracted and repelled by what I have read of his ideas, so I am keen to learn more.

I got up way too early and had to take my car in for more repairs (still not fixed) so I don’t have enough energy to be my normal sparkling, engaging self. My spoon count is just high enough to have ice cream.

Today was so stressful I now require a beer AND a peanut butter cup! 😜

I've noticed that one of the daft self soothing things I do is walk around talking to myself in a Birmingham (UK) accent. I love that accent. Life seems more manageable in that accent #life #language #SelfSoothing
