I'm just now getting over a cold that gave me the worst laryngitis of my life. It felt like I got punched in the throat some days. So I'm super grateful today to have most of my voice back. Swelling and inflammation is reduced. Even my cough which I thought would become bronchitis is fading. So grateful to be feeling well again after a week of this.

This is a very very good habit to have. It does wonders for mental health including reducing existential dread and depression. It's not a silver bullet but it helps tremendously.

I try to remember whenever something bad is happening to me like a cold, or getting laid off, I'm grateful to not be a victim of genocide or taken as POW in Russia. Hell, not having to be drafted in the military like Americans did in Vietnam.

Being grateful in the face of suffering is its own CBT

That one scene in the bedroom got me good. Had some trouble being alone in the dark after that for several days. Thankfully I have doggies and a wife so not sleeping alone. I would have prob had to sleep with the lights on otherwise.

If you're on this binge and want some recs. "Talk to me" and "late night with the devil" are my favorites so far this year. "Longlegs" was really bad imo.
