I did this too. Actually I found it didn't really provide me with any concrete solution to my issues. You know what solved it? I started meditating because my anxiety about the GERD itself was through the roof. My blood pressure droppe

Haven't a clue, I don't like working with clients anymore, and running a SaaS is out of the question since everyone wants to do it and it's not as dreamy as it sounds. I'll figure something out for sure.
