    Psoriatic arthritis flared up in my entire body that has made it impossible to sleep or even really exist for the last week and a half.

    It would be awesome to just not hurt for a few hours.

      I mostly use distractions as a way clearing my head.

      The best thing to distract myself when I was really depressed was Geoguessr, it takes focus and is fun.

      If you need a free alternative, look at Geotastic.

    Yup, like the others, I’m broke. Month to month barely getting by. Gotta trim back where I can.

    Everything. Or just this.

    I need to get my car fixed so I can leave.
    I need to empty out my car so I can get it fixed.
    I need my car fixed so I can empty it out.
    I need to go shopping so I have food.
    I need to bike to go shopping.
    I need to eat to bike.
    I need food to eat.
    I need to get paniers and a rack for a bike so I’m not so reliant on my car.
    I need to get my car fixed so I’m not so reliant on a bike.
    I need to find a therapist to feel safe.
    I need to set up a computer to email every provider in a whole state to try to find one.
    I need to set up a computer so I can work.
    I need to feel safe to set up a computer.

    Everything seems like the most important thing to do right now. I know the actual only important thing to do today is get food for at least 3 days so I can have at least 1 day when that’s not a problem. I need someone to tell that to even though I’d already thought of that and thought that I have nobody to tell it to, so thank you for asking.

    My anxiety is particularly bad today. I woke up with my hands shaking and I got so nervous I started to dry heave.

        I usually distract myself with a YouTube video or a movie. But it’d be nice to have some help with it

          I posted about distractions earlier in the thread, the most effective distractions for me has been Geoguessr.

          I also learned a lot about how the Swedish road network is numbered as I live in Sweden and mostly played the Swedish map.
