    Not my typical episode… I was spiraling earlier, thinking about all the atrocities occurring in this country. About how people are suffering, families are being torn apart. About how being white doesn't mean anything when you're a female, when you're a member of the LGBTQIA+ community, when you're a veteran, when you're autistic. We're all susceptible. I forgot to mention that when I was talking about white men, I don't mean ALL white men. Just the evil ones. Sorry guys!To stop the spiral, I journaled about what I feel evil and resistance look like. Making lists when I'm anxious is calming, so I journaled myself some lists.
