1. Why was your day bad?

2. Why was your month great?

3. Did you get anything fun for Xmas?

1) Already answered!

2) Partially answered! I also got an A- in my class, have plans to meet up with three classmates for drinks in the near future (including the one I mentioned before), grew closer to my girlfriend (in many ways, not just the one), got some cool earrings (that I can't wear quite yet because my ear holes need more time), including a pair my girlfriend straight-up made for me. She also got me a mirror for applying makeup, and scrawled on the box, "Because you're beautiful. And you need to see it." I did some good eating and drinking, and feel I've grown very close with the enby coworker (the one that I mentioned before. There's also an enby in Dairy who is also an amazing person).

3) Woops, rambled and answered that above.

How do you deal when you get panic attacks?

It helps to have a little privacy, but that's not always feasible. I just try to close my eyes, and focus on my breathing. In, out, nice and steady and slow. Try to bring to mind good, calming things (a warm cup of tea in my room, a walk with the girlfriend, a chill hangout, a satisfying hike, etc.)

And remember: there are no tigers. Unless you're in India, Southeast Asia, or Siberia, then tigers may well be a legitimate concern.
