It is a necessity, really. Reading stabilizes my mental health (or it is addiction, but one I’m not planning to cure). I’m sorry you have to deal with anxiety too.
Our brains really are so complex and need such tender care. It is so satisyfying to look at your reading list in an image like this! All those beautiful covers. Happy birthday month! <3
With summer, perhaps you can read outside... combining another stress reliever with reading! Hearing bird song and being under the trees is supposed to help with anxiety... although the mosquitoes under the trees... maybe not! Perhaps you could convince your kitty to help you with some "purr therapy," too. I am reading The Murders in Great Diddling by Katarina Bivald, which is nearly 400 pages, but "reads fast." I'm enjoying it. Hoping your stress diminishes!
Thank you, I’m sure I will read outside this summer and Alice (the kitty) is working her magic every day.☺️ I’m diving into longer books this month as I actually miss being in a story for longer than a day. 😄
I admire your ability to read so much. I understand that anxiety tension in the chest though...

Then you must keep on reading then!
