Shower had, lemsip made and in bed about to listen to Vikki Petraitis's podcast on the frankston murders. Oddly, listening to it has been helping to distract my anxiety about life.

What are you taking Lemsip for?

Not odd. A good podcast, tv show, book, movie etc can be a good way to get some respite from anxiety. I think distracting the brain lets it calm down a bit. (My totally non medical opinion)

Can I recommend to you the podcast Ridiculous Crime. 100% murder free. They talk about such classics as Succulent Chinese Meal man and the Max Headroom incident.
