So I had a bit of an epiphany with my anxiety while I was meditating...

...and I wish I had realized this sooner.

Anyway, while I was meditating this morning (to deal with said anxiety), I had this thought of "hey, maybe I can change my perspective in regards to how I co-exist with my anxiety."

This thought led to an almost immediate uptick in my mood (although the anxiety itself remained). I figured that if I had a friendlier relationship with my anxiety (and by extension, myself), that I could, in a way, also somewhat change the degree of how much anxiety was and is for me.

Food for thought anyway. :)
