Where it all begins

I've had a great day overall.

I went on a date with a guy I met on some dating app, he was nice. We chatted for a bit before I went home, though I couldn't shake the feeling that someone was right behind me as I walked down the street.

I assume I'm just paranoid, but... every time I turn around I see something out of the corner of my eye. Like a shadow just out of reach.

Lately I started taking new medication for my anxiety, but I don't think they're working. Maybe they have hallucinations as a side effect? I'll check them when I get to my apartment.

I feel like I organize my thoughts strangely. Friends have told me that they think in pictures, others have said words, but I think in both. I find myself writing stories in my head to cope with day to day life, creating fiction from my experiences to make it through them. I add illustrations with my wording, and sometimes create vivid scenes of fantastical creatures speaking in odd tongues.

Maybe I should talk to my therapist more... I'll make an appointment later.
