My plan to get healthy in 3 days worked like a charm and I am happy to report that I am healthy enough to have gone to a farmers market, for a walk, and to a concert. This is probably the first post that I am publishing so close to midnight because I wanted those jumping and dancing to be counted in my activity.
It was very important to me that I do not miss this concert because it is a very old Croatian band that I used to listen when I was younger but from all the bands, this one stayed with me to this day and I still love to listen to their songs. It was also important that I do not miss the tomorrows' full-day seminar on hypnosis that I am going to. It was paid months ago and I am really looking forward to attending. It will be a full day so Sunday will probably go without an actifit post.

I had a very low step count yesterday because I was saving my energy and trying to get as healthy as possible for today and tomorrow. Day went in writing posts, cooking and a short coffee in the evening with my friends. Resting paid off because I feel good enough to have an amazing weekend that I have planned to have. Since this post is being written in advance, I have no idea what my step number is so it is a mystery to me as it is to you. I just plan to copy this text next to the actifit info and publish. I also have no idea how the concert went but I have a feeling that it was amazing.

As I am writing this, I am a bit nervous about the concert. It is the first time in 4 years for me to go out to a place with so many people. When my agoraphobia was diagnosed all those years ago, I was not able to enjoy crowded spaces and even though I am off my meds for two years now, I still have not tried going to a concert. I hope everything will go fine and the music will distract me and occupy me enough so I do not notice all the people around me lol. I am sure it will be fine. I knew that someday, this day would come and I have been preparing for it little by little with gradually expanding the number of people I feel comfortable around in one place. One baby step after another and I am confident that I have reached the point where I feel safe around people. We will see how it goes tonight and you will get info about it somewhere around Monday.
P.S. EDITED: The concert was amazing and it was a perfect evening. I am proud to report that there was not a single panic attack or agorphobia in sight. I can not tell you how happy I truly am.
