First day of freedom (for two weeks) and I played video games on a PC with a friend. Turns out cybersickness is a thing. I felt like throwing up. But besides that, it was kinda fun.
The anxiety hasn't completely gone away because of failing, and just worrying about my future, but I think the more I do stuff, the more I will be in the present.
So I'm finally done with the uni stuff for two weeks. I will have to find out what's going to happen with the failed subjects. Might have to go to uni for an extra year which I'm not loving, but I feel like this is the only way for career progression, unless I do a trade. That's unfortunately not happening because I'm not very mechanically gifted. But I'm going to stop worrying about what my life will be like in ten years time because I will trust that whatever happens, happens.
Yay sleep clinic! Good luck, it will get better :)
I don't want to be one of those people, but have you tried sleep restriction? I'm not sure if it's cognitive or biological or a mix of both in your case, but what about CBT-I?

Slept at 5am. Yikes.

I kept hearing this noise at night and I thought it was the sound of some electrical thing outside. I have confirmed it's a possum. Sounds like me screaming with no high pitched noise.
My dad was great for putting up a pergola outside, but the possums love running up it.
So cool! Can I ask where the lights are from?
I see you're also AuDHD. Have you found anything that's effective?
I think I'd prefer to avoid benzos, but thanks for the suggestion. I think much of the anxiety will dissipate when the academic stress is gone.
So good! How did you get that gig?
