Dear Brain,

Can we please stop fucking with my body? Pretty please? My uncle invited me to a Fourth of July party in Pittsburgh--it's with the other side of his family, and I have met a good number of them. They are really nice. Abigail in particular is awesome and nerdy and I may have a crocheted Yoda to throw at her when I get there

I'd say happy independence day but I want my colony back! ;)

Good of you to go even though you're feeling anxious. I'm sure you'll be fine once you get there. Of course by the time you read this, I suspect you'll be back.

But drugs are so tasty---wait. :|

I think it's amazing that 99% of the time you're fine without medication...my God, I was off mine for like two months and I was a mess. Ffffpt.

All I can say is...distract your brain. Play music you love while driving and concentrate on that. Before you know it, you'll be there and UNABLE TO LEAVE I mean--

Also maybe...ask your doctor about quick working anxiety meds that also don't turn you into a zombie? IDK if those actually exist because the shit they put me on for controlling my attacks asap was klonopin which...is used for schizophrenic people...and therefore made me into a very...unemotional deadlike person. :/

Well, it's been about six months since I've been off it, so I've sort of learned how to be fine, if that makes sense.

Klonopin sounds like a terrible idea!! At one point I had a few Xanax for things like plane trips, which worked pretty well...I could see about getting a prescription for those, just in case, but I probably couldn't have taken one yesterday anyway, since I was driving.
