Hello Again!
***Buffer Overflow Error***
Have you ever seen sheep that went too long without being sheared? It can be a serious health risk for domesticated sheep.
I think of my anxiety like that. Because I have an anxiety disorder, I will always have some level of anxiety. Instead of being debilitating, it can be helpful. Building a healthy(ish) relationship with my anxiety allows me to make regular progress on important things and anticipate a lot of problems around the house.
But, I have to regularly shear the anxiety from my mind, or else I become immobilized, much like the sheep in the story I linked to above.
However, this is a cycle. The anxiety always grows back.
Be the weird you want to see in the world!
Cheers,
Jason
I felt this one on many levels. Loving your daily posts, Jason! I look forward to them every morning. They’re the perfect length and always make me think.
The shearing analogy, simultaneously unique and accurate, is an excellent way to describe it.
