10. You certainly are not alone.

Fri Nov 21, 2025, 12:02 PM

Yesterday

The stress is constant. Concentration and sleep are hard to achieve. Day after day, week after week, etc., and no end in sight. Trying to hold on to hope and small moments of joy and repeat them to myself like a mantra so I don't forget.
An early cheers to you if I am unable to check in later.
