Also (and not Beyonce's fault!) the song is getting so appropriated by my fellow white women! Katie Holmes doing the dance on late night, ML Marketers saying "let's get information and sell it works!" ughhhh.

I am into it. I love Beyonce. I plan on spending a lot of money to go to her tour. That song is still not for me!

This week is the anniversary of my dad's death so yeah...it's terrible. Took an Uber home Wednesday night despite surge pricing because I really only had 15 minutes of holding my shit together left in me - not the 30 required for the bus ride.

If you do still need some resources, have you considered contacting https://exhaleprovoice.org/ ? I haven't contacted them myself, but it is supported by some smart, pro-choice women I know, so they might be helpful. They have talkline if you want to speak with someone.

So much sympathy. I definitely self-isolate when I'm depressed, so I totally get you there.

I agree that counseling is probably a good call. But in the meantime, could you make the commitment to yourself that you will spend half an hour outside moving your body every day? I understand there's lots of reasons why that might not be possible, but if it is, I think it might really help in the meantime. Evidence is growing about how nature helps our stress levels, and there's already good evidence about the benefits of exercise. It might also break you out of the rut of staying inside all weekend.

A couple weeks ago I was an hour late for a training because I straight up forgot about it. So you're not the only one.
