Had another job interview today. That's two in one month, something that was beyond my capabilities a few months ago. I was really calm on the days leading up to it. Normally I'm dreading the whole thing in advance, but this time I was so chill about it all. But when I was driving there the anxiety really kicked in. But I noticed it was just anxiety, that cycle of negative thoughts wasn't swirling in my head. This leads me to believe that I have a sort of Pavlovian response to fear that needs to be broken. Overall I cared about making a good impression, but I didn't care that much. Meaning it didn't feel like that life or death situation that it used to feel like. If I screwed it up, it's whatever, I'll have other opportunities.
But it could have been something else. I didn't mention this but about a month ago I got t boned at an intersection. Ever since then I've been having a lot more anxiety about driving. And today I had to drive into a city for this interview. So it was a lot going on at once for me. Probably a lot of residual trauma from that accident.
That's about it. But I've noticed I've been dropping words when typing out long responses. Which is funny because usually I'm really worried about doing that. But lately I'm just like eh whatever. Probably all the processing going on in my brain from this sub.
