I am so grateful to the better night’s sleep that I had last night! It’s amazing how sleep improves the mood. I have an errand to run this morning that I really do not want to do but have no choice. It seems that I’ve been unable to reach the staff at my psychiatrist’s office. I leave messages and I never get any return phone calls. Thus, it has come to the point where I will need to go to the office to actually make an appointment. Is staffing really that bad!?
Today I will also try to make more headway on my financial literacy class. I was working on it yesterday at the library, when out of the blue, I had a panic attack. I started the unit called “Money Personality,” and as I was reading, the panic attack came on very strong. I know I worry about money constantly so this might have triggered it? I don’t really know but it was very unpleasant; felt like a heart attack except I knew it wasn’t. Thankfully, I have a good friend who I could text and it calmed me down.
From a fresh mind and perspective, I will now sit down to work more on this section of the Khan Academy class. I think this time around it should be mentally easier (or at least so I am hoping.) I wish money matters weren’t so stressful. Yet I know that the cause of the stress is my not understanding of personal finance which is the purpose of the class I am taking in the first place.
Well, I am going to brave the cold today and make the trek to my doctor’s office so that I can get this very important made. I’ll also have to get my INR levels checked because I take Warfarin to prevent blood clots. Once that gets done, I’ll go to the library.
