Not Out Of The Woods Yet But....

 I have been doing a lot better over the last few days as we had my wife’s parents come and visit over the weekend and I will be visiting my family in a couple of weeks. I haven’t had the chance to do so since this COVID-19 pandemic hit.

I felt good this morning but I am going onto midnight shift which effects my sleep patterns. I find that a big part of this is my irregular sleep patterns as I tend to get more anxious in this time period.

I have been getting more exercise as I have been going out on walks and getting on the treadmill. I also am looking for more activities to occupy my time and keep my mind focused elsewhere. I also need to find ways to keep my mind off this pandemic.

Work has been going better and with it my anxiety. This “black dog” has not completely disappeared but is showing signs of going away.It will take a little more time and I will still have to walk through this valley.

But I have to say I am not out of the woods yet but I am doing a lot better.
