What are you avoiding right now due to SA?

[distancing]

Contacting a local support center for people coping with chronic mental illness... I finally came out of a long major depressive episode a few months ago, but still haven't taken any concrete steps to getting my life back in order. I can already feel a relapse creeping up, so need to try reaching out before that happens. Unfortunately, my therapist (who helped immensely) left last month, so I've been feeling pretty adrift since then.

In relation to the above, I've also avoided interacting with people on here for a long time (though I've been lurking). Going to work on changing that, too.

So hi again, all!

College related stuff in general.

Going to graduate soon with my masters so job hunting is in full effect. Definitely dreading it.

I think its time I meet new people as well which I am the worst at.

Not because of SA, but because of anxiety pure and simple, I've been avoiding to deal with French bureaucracy (e.g. trying to validate my diploma here). I've had bad experiences with bureaucratic stuff before so now dealing with translations and legalization of official documents triggers my anxiety. Right now I'm in the process of transferring my drivers license to France and it's a pain in the butt, to say the least

Bringing my car to the garage - I think I did some damage to it and should not be driving it - I will try do it tomorrow - today I want a relaxing, stress free day!!

Pretty much everything. Why is it so easy to slip into old habits?

Setting an appointment with the mental health facilities at school. They could help my problems but ironically, my problems are preventing me from seeking help. Also, setting an appointment to get tested at the regular hospital/medical/whatever thing.

Using the computers in the school library to print. It's .05 per page but apparently everyone gets $40~ for printing so I want to take advantage of that. I think I just walk in and find a computer that isn't busy, but I'm worried that I have to do something first and I'll get in trouble

So I'm tired of the basic glasses I wear. I was thinking of getting some of those thick-framed/nerdy ones that are in style. I think I could look good with those. Except the insurance my parents have for optometrists only covers the type of glasses I currently wear/have been wearing for the past 10 years. Luckily, I went online and found you can buy cheap prescription glasses.

Problem is, I don't know what my prescription or glasses size is and I'd have to set up an appointment for the optometrist, go to said appointment, then ask for a copy of the information I need. And I only have a few months before insurance runs out and I have to pay for the appointment.

[Inscrutable Banana]

Making a doctors appointment for a physical and blood workup, I keep procrastinating on it because I'm staring at the number and dreading having to call and talk to them instead of just forcing myself to do it...granted, I've actually been putting this off for around 10 years now, but I've recently decided that I should probably make sure I don't have secret diabeetus or something.

Is that something that happens to you often?

It used to happen a lot at another gas station I went to but I stop going to that one
