Good morning groovy souls!
How goes the dawn for all you wonderful folk? I'm feeling on the bounce and looking forward to what I hope is a constructive day.
I'm hoping to call a dear friend that I haven't had chance to connect with much lately.
It's kind of funny that making a phone call can feel like a titanic effort even thought I'm just calling a friend.
Yay for having an anxiety condition! :P
@NiveusLepus I feel you. Something in me is unalterably convinced that making a phone call will bring on the Apocalypse. I can even hear it now, saying "I'm not saying it'll bring on the Apocalypse, I'm just saying there's no reason to do it right now." Add my usual procrastination and distractibility and it's a wonder I ever call anyone.
@ImagineThat is truly relatable to my own experience. It’s just a strange kind of scary
@NiveusLepus
When wrangling my anxiety, sometimes I find it useful to think about what the worst is that's likely to happen. Conversation can be so intimate. I have a close friend who I didn't speak with for a decade (her cousin divorced my sister, and was a real shit about it). That decade has somehow faded into irrelevance as far as the friendship goes. Best of luck with the chat!
