Around town
Went with a friend to visit somewhere he wanted to go (Whole Foods of all places). Then we went to Trader Joes, a bookstore, and a burger place. I spent three hours out doing stuff, without a panic attack. I am quite happy with myself right now.

Fish oil
I finally found a brand oil fish oil capsules that aren't the GIANT HORSE PILLS normally sold. The regular size are far too large to be easily swallowed. These are about a third of the size. It does mean I have to take three, but the alternative was zero because I couldn't swallow them.
It's supposed to be good for depression. I started a while ago and I'm about 3/4 of the way through the first bottle.
positive thinking holiday
I've had the last two weeks and a day off, due to Christmas vacation and my employment contract ending. My contractor position is being turned into a full time position. I've applied for it, but it's a very large company so things don't happen immediately. Anyway I've been positive on it and viewing it as an extended vacation as opposed to unemployment. It is unemployment, as I am not guaranteed the job, even though I was doing it already as a contractor.
Anyway I went two weeks without having to take a nap. I finally had to today. I've been awake during the night for the past week with a kidney stone. For me they cause a very specific pain sensation, so I know what it is. I also get one every 18 months or so. They're so small they pass by themselves.
I did something good for myself over the holidays and went to the art museum twice. The first time I got anxious, but the second time I did much better and spent an hour there without any issues other than being tired from walking around for an hour. I also went for lunch with a friend another time.
Today I got myself out for a short walk, maybe 10 minutes I wanted to get myself out of the house and get some activity. I got anxious while out walking. I was already tired when I decided I needed to kick myself out of the house for the walk. I was very tired when I got back, and went and napped.
