Also I've decided that in January, when I come back for the spring semester, I'm going to start therapy.

Not only do I want to deal with my anxiety which is becoming a bigger and badder part of my life, but if I'm serious about wanting to move (and I am) then I need to handle it better than I did last time.

Because moving means being away from my core support system. And I'll have Oregon Girl, but it's not fair to depend on her solely. And that would be really unhealthy and destructive.

So, I'll need to depend on myself. And a therapist would, I hope, help me develop the tools I need to make this potential life change a good experience.

I'm hopeful. Scared, definitely. But I am very serious about considering moving. And therefore I need to make sure that it's something that I, myself, can handle properly.
