—Kute Blackson

I made it out of my apartment and was pleasantly surprised to temporarily see the sun peaking from the overcast skies realizing that I would of missed it if I stayed inside.  I also enjoyed a cup of herbal tea (raspberry) at one of my favourite coffee stops and was able to handle my anxiety when someone came in and started talking very loud and made a bit of an disturbance.  I have learned in the past  to help my anxiety by doing the following: deep breathing, practicing mindfulness and/or listening to the radio on my cell phone and doing some activities like writing and drawing.
