Well, good news everyone. I didn't throw up before work today, in fact, I ate my normal breakfast (eggs over easy and sausage). Didn't even have to think about taking a Xanax. Even better, this afternoon could have been very stressful to me because of some extra work that was not foreseen. However, I sent a message to the lead paralegal to let her know what was going on, and that I would do what I can. So, while tomorrow and probably early next week will probably be very busy, I managed not to freak out about it (we'll see if that lasts through next week). I admit, there are still lingering negative thoughts in the back of my head, but they're going to stay there, in the back of my head. I am feeling really, really great today.
Once again, thank all of you for sharing your stories and your words of encouragement. I feel like the last few weeks are going to be very important for my long-term future.
