The combination of my increase of Zyprexa and my new obsession on positive psychology has led me to be happier and more stable. I still get anxiety problems sometimes, but they are less focused on certain problems. It's getting easier for me to "let go" of problems or let unpleasant thoughts run their course and then feel back to normal. However, I still get this free-floating anxiety where I'm not thinking of anything in particular. Reading and other distraction activities sometimes help. The idea that I can control my own happiness levels and that I shouldn't let other people dictate my emotions really inspired me. I can be controlling in some ways, so I definitely want to feel control over myself and my life. I'm trying to look for the good in people even if they are unpleasant or upset me. I'm trying to be respectful and to stay with positive emotions even if people around me become mean or negative, but that's a little harder to do. I over involve myself emotionally with people. I don't think it's bad to care about people a lot, but I also should just let them be who they are and deal with their own problems without letting it affect me. Sometimes I get frustrated with people too easily... Or I take things too personally... Learning to take people problems less personally is important.
