I met my therapist, and my therapist met me. I like her and want to give her a try, and she's willing to work with me. So we set up the next few appointments and she had me order an anxiety workbook that she likes to use with her anxiety patients. Our sessions will be a combo of talk therapy and assignments/homework. It's promising.
In the meantime, I downloaded CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy) for Anxiety for Dummies to my Kindle. I figure I need to learn to change my thinking, so I've been flipping through that.
So I've been cancelled three days in a row. I got a lot of reading done...I'll be careful not to give away any spoilers. I read Gone Girl. Eh. Somewhat predictable though with a few unexpected twists. I've no desire to see the movie though.
The Stepford Wives. Spooky. Do you think that's what men are looking for in their partners? Do you think women would want the same thing?
Children of the Corn. Ends differently than the movie does. And after reading the story, I was let down in the movie.
Carrie. I'm glad I had two boys.
If You Lived Here, I'd Know Your Name. The joys of living in a very small town in Alaska. I'm not wild about very small towns, where the population is a couple of thousand and close-knit. I like my small town, where it's small enough to have a sense of cohesiveness but not so small that everyone knows you and your business.
Escape From Camp 14. Beneath the PR facade, North Korea is not a very nice place.
Nothing to Envy: Ordinary Lives in North Korea. Tales from the escapees.
West of the West: Witnesses to the California Experience. I'm currently in this one. I figured since I live here I may as well learn its history.
