Aw, @BerdNurd, I love that you thought to make this thread. Reflecting on your time like this would be an excellent way to process everything happening every day. I can imagine it's helpful for other members of this community to read about, so thank you for being so open. 🙂
I'm sorry to read day 8 was a rollercoaster - It's hard to feel calm when people around us sound distressed. You mentioned that you tried the opposite action skill in that situation. I just wanted to acknowledge your hard work. Those situations can be confronting, and I think it's admirable that you tried to use the skills that you've learned. I'm also chuffed to hear that you were gentle with yourself after the panic attack. Sounds like you're really looking after yourself 🙂
Looking forward to reading more of your updates, and I hope you're having a good day so far!
