@clearerworld I am! I make videos about them on YouTube now (my channel is The Book Bully 😀)

I hope you are well Dominique!

Hi, hello, how are ya?

I used to spend most of my work day on Twitter; now I barely ever log in. I keep getting notifications on my phone app, though, begging me to come back and engage.

Here's the thing: being on GC Twitter is hard for me. Which is not the whole truth.

[Jillian Sexton @_JillianSexton]

But I'm popping on to say that I miss laughing and chatting with my friends from across the globe, and I really hope everyone is coping the best they possibly can in these pandemic days.

And I hope you are all well. Really and truly. 💜

[Jillian Sexton @_JillianSexton]

Being on Twitter, seeing all my friends and contacts from a previous life (aka job/community) is actually traumatic for me.

I have PTSD from working in GC, and logging on here, seeing all the conversations I'm no longer a part of, is very triggering. So I stay away.

@AalyaDE So sorry to hear, Aalya. Strength, love and peace to you and yours.

Struggling with the balance of using my phone as my only means of connecting to any other human right now while also being so sick and tired of looking at my phone.

[Jillian Sexton @_JillianSexton]

@speaka This is a great look on you.

Hi friends - is anyone still using @boardthing? I am trying to create a new account and it keeps asking me to sign in? anyone know a way around this?

[Jillian Sexton @_JillianSexton]

@zariachanner Leave the house! That's the only way my cat stops screaming for food.

[Jillian Sexton @_JillianSexton]

One year ago I went to my doctor and, while having a panic attack in her office, told her I didn't think I had an anxiety problem.

Happy anniversary to me and my anxiety meds - which have changed my life for the best - because my Doctor encouraged me to talk. #BellLetsTalk
