I finally achieved financial stability.

Now I can afford the premium subscription to my anxiety app.

I've been doing the work in therapy to develop a growth mindset

but so far, the only thing that's grown is my therapist's billable hours

I told my manager I was feeling burned out from all the 'optional' overtime

and they said I just needed to 'want it more' – I'm starting to think they want me to want a stress leave

My therapist told me to 'do the work' and sit with my uncomfortable feelings.

So I added them to my calendar for next Tuesday at 3 PM, right after laundry.
