create new things from what you have?

unfortunately, if i go off-book and try to make something new, my brain somehow finds room to start spiraling back down into depression and anxiety :/

thanks for the ideas everybody, though. it’s really great to know that you all care. you’re all excellent

break them and do it again.

dismantle and remake?

that negates the achievement and makes it more boring (since i remember how it all goes together)

the problem is that as soon as i’m done the anxiety returns

but yeah it seems like for me it’s the perfect combination of requiring the right kind of thought processes but not too intensely while also utilizing non-strenuous physical movement and also having a physical product at the end giving a sense of accomplishment

apparently building lego sets helps with my anxiety

i’ve now built every single one in the house that still have most of their pieces

i can’t

what can i do?

today’s even worse

i really need to be able to talk to someone right now

i’m terrible at talking to people when i’m feeling like this (seriously, it’s bad)

but i would really appreciate it if someone could text/message/skype/whatever me right now

i’m so sorry for being like this

but my pain never gets better and regularly gets worse

and this is making me fear that it’ll never stop
