My boss told me to 'manifest a positive outcome'

when I asked for a raise.

My therapist encouraged me to find healthy ways to self-soothe.

So I started color-coding my anxiety spreadsheet.

I've been reading a lot of self-help books to improve my mental health

Now I have a lot of feelings and a significant amount of overdue library fines

My therapist said my avoidant attachment style keeps me from genuine connection.

So naturally, I've just been avoiding their emails.
