Taking control.

I loved Tom Stephenson's post about setting aside time to worry.  15 minutes get your worrying over.  I am trying really hard not to worry about things I can do nothing about.

The antidepressant pill was collected today by the DP from the pharmacist.  She said I could drink my red wine.  Only worry she had was I would be drowsy but as its low dosage and to be taken before bedtime she was not concerned.  

My family were justly concerned but there is a limit to not curtailing the few pleasures I have, red wine being one of them.  

So I have girded up my loins and when I become anxious to ask myself can you do anything about this?  If the answer is yes, do it, if not forget it.  Be a few 15 minutes there at first Tom.

For a start the anxiety over the pill.  I am not taking it tonight.  I will read the leaflet in the packet - not Google - tomorrow and then decide.

So away for the anxiety ridding Prom.

Just look at that view.

No wind today.  I walked a bit but not the full walk as along the way I was chatting.  One friend I met announced she had Covid but was now out of isolating.  I still took a few steps back.  For once I wished it was windy  blowing her full in the face.

Boats.

I see you.

A few people and a dog.

Four o clock and the sun goes down.

Much more positive.  Thanks for all your support.  And Tom for making me think.  Taking control can be done.
