My therapist told me I need to find healthy coping mechanisms.

My current one is just doomscrolling Zillow listings I can't afford.

I've been trying to improve my emotional intelligence in therapy

but it's hard when my therapist charges by the hour to listen to me explain why I'm right

My therapist told me I need to be more mindful of my triggers.

Now every time my phone battery drops below 50%, I know it's going to be a rough day.

My manager told me to 'optimize my passion' for the company.

But honestly, my only passion right now is optimizing my sleep schedule.
