Are you an anxious person?

do you find yourself scroll on your phone to deal with your anxiety?

WIBILL may be right for you.

—- anyways, back to a regular blog.

today I realized that I was dealing with anxiety either caused by scrolling or that I was scroll because of my anxiety. Regardless of the chicken-or-egg situation, I realized that I need to interrupt my behavior because it wasn’t leading to anythang good.

which I love when I have these moments because it means I’m aware of what’s going on in my body and conscious enough to realize I need to interrupt the pattern. pats self on back

this time I was able to take it a step forward and ask myself what the best medicine for my anxiety would be. My answer? I needed to create something.

I had a moment with that realization that made myself love myself more. I love my artist archetype so fully these days that when she comes out I want to celebrate it each time. She’s an inner child element of my personality that I’ve shoved away for too long. She deserves to know she’s finally safe and supported.

The only problem? I was very comfy on the couch and cuddled up with my dog, Clementine, so there’s no way I was moving.

but I had my phone in my reach. So I decided to pick it up and write this. Because my muse, my artist, deserves to create in this moment.
