Relaxation
In this post, I’ll be discussing how I’ve never found it easy to relax, what ways in the past worked, and what I am currently doing to try and unwind, something especially important to me at the moment as I feel I am becoming more stressed due to increased sensitivity to PTSD triggers.
My Keyboard
In today’s post, I’m going to be discussing my current keyboard, how I decided which one to get, which features I cared about, and why I felt I needed to change from a standard full sized membrane keyboards I’d had most of my life.
PearCleaner
Fully uninstalling applications on a Mac can be a bit difficult, simply dragging the .app file into your Trash and then emptying it usually leaves behind many files and folders, and if you try to reinstall later (perhaps uninstalling and reinstalling for the application to behave as brand new) the .app may try to reconnect with the old data.
PTSD
Something that has been bothering me these past two weeks has been an increased sensitivity to sounds, which sets off my audible-based PTSD triggers. It has resulted in me feeling overall very anxious and unable to fully relax. My sleep has worsened, which has made me feel like I’m more susceptible to these sounds affecting me, creating a loop where I need more sleep to be more resistant to them, but my anxiety is making my sleep worse.
I Stopped Journalling
A couple of years ago, I wrote a post about migrating my journalling data away from popular application Day One, and where I was planning to move it to. However, I have stopped journalling, and I’ll go into why in this short post.
