Supporting you from afar, Chris! It seems like you’re doing all the right things, setting all the right priorities, creating all the right conditions for yourself. You got this, bud!
Whenever I’m working on myself (for instance lately, I’ve been trying to reduce severe anxiety attacks), I have ups which make me feel the worst is behind me. And then I’ll hit a “down” couple of days, which test my resolve. So I know what you mean.
In those tough times, I find the support system of family/friends to be HUGE help. Taking things on alone is so so so hard. It certainly helps, especially during times where I need a good push in the right direction, to count on that support system.
Keep on keepin’ on, dude!
