I have been too long without a therapist, I think. My last one was so wonderful, and I only left her because of an insurance switch. Now I'm thinking about how I'll find one in a whole new place when I move for grad school, and it's super daunting.

In the meantime, I have not been prioritizing self-care, and the last couple of days have shown me that I must, so it's been weighing on my mind lately. I'm glad you got a reality check from folks who cared enough to remind you about the important of self care; I hope you have fruitful therapy sessions and get some healing and peace from them.
