Ha! The universe really said April Fool's. I ordered a notebook from Bog & Ide, and instead I got this book. Safe to say I wasn't expecting this. I talked to them, and they will send my notebook, but it will take a while because of the holidays, so I will wait again! They said to just keep this book, and when the lady I talked to laughed at the situation. She said I could keep the book or give it to a good cause. I am intrigued, so I might give it a read.

Today I had a meeting with my new psychologist at 9am, and I actually made it to my appointment - this is something I struggle with, so I am proud of myself, and so was she. My old psychologist went on maternity leave, and my doctor at the hospital just got a new job, so new ones for me and a lot of changes. Previously, I have done therapy for OCD, but now they want to go in at a different angle, to get to the root of my OCD, so it doesn't just return again at full strength in a year. Whatever they wanna try - I am open to it! Also, they changed the aesthetics of the waiting area a bit since the last time I was there - I like it!

After my appointment, Lasse and I went for a drive and stopped by the water. I am absolutely loving this weather. When getting back home, I took a nap, then ordered in, and now I am just relaxing to some music. My medication is making me so drowsy and sleepy, so today took a lot of energy out of me, I did not have - but it was worth it!

 

The Plant!

(Insert for dramatic effect: Beethoven’s Symphony no. 5 in C Minor, Op. 67: I. Allegro con brio ♫)

I bought this fake plant online, and plants trigger my OCD - yes, even the fake ones (fear creepy crawlies will live in it). So I went through this whole thing where I unpacked it slowly in the shower, sprayed it with bug spray, and then my plan was to slowly move it to this spot in the picture. But I ended up doing it quickly, and I barely notice it when I enter the room - so well done, OCD for overreacting, and well done, medication for finally working. All in all - a great win for me! And personally, I reckon it looks really good! Rant over!

 

Today was a real struggle from the moment I got up. Definitely one of those days where I wanted to cancel, but I had a psychologist appointment, and I got off my arse to go to that. I also had packages to pick up and some grocery shopping to do. 

I made it through the day, but I had to take a lot of breaks to deal with anxiety. Today was my second appointment, and so far my body and mind are reacting a lot - I will do another post, getting into it. Just happy with myself that I got through today. Tomorrow will be better ♡
