One day a few weeks ago I was feeling undeniably triggered by some up and coming interactions I was needing to have. I may have been extra sensitive because of some changes going on at work, but either way, one day I ended up in tears. I was just so overwhelmed and unclear about what to do. So I cried. Then I journaled about what was coming up for me in those situations. I followed that up by texting a few friends who would help me at that moment and over the next few days on either side of one of the interactions I was dreading.

I posted about my sleep routine here back in August 2019. That post was published the month before I asked my doctor to put me back on antidepressants because I wasn't coping well on my own while I was waiting for some more therapy. A lot has obviously happened between then and now.

My sleep routine is ever-evolving as my needs change and I try different things to help to sleep better but this is my current sleep routine that I promised you a few blogs ago. It's what I've been doing for about the last three months.

I'm not one for savoury snacks as I have a sweet tooth, my go-to flavour of crisps, however, are lightly salted. I've been avoiding adding salt to my meals where possible so for example, if I have chips, then I don't add salt to them.
