What a difference

After a year, I’m back to work and back to living.

A big week

A series of fortunate events.

Pulling back

I’m managing my energy to take care of myself.

Validity

Working on my dissertation proposal edits and learning how to define success for myself.

Early to bed

Working on getting more sleep.

Correspondence

Recovery from depression has changed how I relate to people.

The unknown

Getting better at living with uncertainty.

Not up for debate

Making a space where I can just be me.

Acculturation

Organizational culture—specifically the Competing Values Framework—informs how I process what I’m learning about myself in therapy.

I feel the need

Building up resilience to stress is helping me better cope with OCD.
