I think you and Robert technically compliment each other when you fight.
I think he can't help the way he has to give that advice. So I'm glad you
have just given it back to him. I think he then gives you some back, just
to see if he can get a rise from you. But if I remember he is in his 70's right. Not if I'm wrong I'm going to feel bad. But oh well.

Now about Marci, I wouldn't feel bad about that. Just remember she technically works for you. Even if you have made her technically a friend. And its okay to let her know that you are the boss. If she can't handle that then its her problem not yours.

You are doing great keep it up.

that chamomile essential oil is really working. I put a drop behind each ear and wound up taking a two hour nap. The phone work me up. I hardly ever am able to take a nap during the day. I got at least 5 hours of sleep last night. Before I was always getting between three or four hours of sleep at night.

When you think you would like to take a nap, put your phone on silent.
So you can get the nap in. Then when you wake up you can
then turn it back on sound.

I think your doing better. And I personally think the more you get
5 to 7 say hours of sleep you will start being not only less anxious
but upset and needing to figure out why.

great idea. I don't know if I can turn off the ringer. I can take the phone off the hook. I have been sleep deprived for so long. Hopefully the chamomile essential oil will keep on working. You are right. I will probably become less anxious.

I hope the oils help you to get more sleep.

I have been sleeping more. I wonder if I could get seven hours of sleep if I keep on doing this.

i just put a few drops of lavender in the diffuser and I closed the door. I see the mist coming up. I hope this calms me down.

Studies prove lavender essential oil to reduce stress and anxiety
If you need proof and are all about science and facts, you just found it. The Handbook of Essential Oils: Science, Technology, and Applications states the various clinical trials that support of the evidence that essential oil is a powerful form of natural anxiety treatment.

Lavender essential oil capsules have been linked to reducing heart rate during periods of increased anxiety
There’s also a study conducted by United States National Library of Medicine that tested lavender essential oils in capsules, which you ingest orally. When participants watched an anxiety-inducing film, the heart rate variation from lavender was significantly improved in comparison to the placebo. In other words, the study concluded that lavender essential oil capsules may be able to help those with acute anxiety. However, the effects it has on high anxiety is still unknown.

My thought on the calming you down. Its going to work if it works
for you. It works differently for different people. And also remember
if it works most of the time. But then one day it just doesn't work
that doesn't mean it has stopped . It just means for some reason
it didn't help that day. It could be that you had different or more
anxiety or something for that day.

So it just didn't give you the relief for all of it. You seem to find a
solution for many types of things. And they work many times
So I think you are doing wonderful. Keep it up.
