@tyme @Gibbs @Dreamy @Bow when my anxiety peaks, I get the tingle fuzzies, not in the nice way, all over my skin.
The only way of stopping it is to go outside, shovel dirt, rake leaves 🍂 collect horse manure.
Go for a horse stroll around the paddock. Leaning back on chaff sake.
Have a rest on dam bank.
Gus (Pegasus) Quarter Horse, comes up, pulls the sack out from under me 🤣
He can smell the chaff even though the sack is empty.
He throws the sack in the air a few times, until he is convinced that the sack is not hiding food 😂
I laughed so hard.
What were we talking about?

@Glisten sounds like some good ways to get rid of the anxiety. Gus takes his job seriously in helping distract you 😂

@Dreamy the first time I met Gus, I was standing with my arms on the top railing of the arena.
Gus came up and started kissing, my arm 😆
I didn’t know what he was doing or why he was doing it 😆
I learned that he was grooming me, because he wanted me to groom him.
Mutual Grooming it’s called.
He goes to sleep when you brush him.
