A great example for when people ask "why do you need to have all your appliances/lights/locks/etc be 'smart'?" - well, because if I think I forgot to turn off the stove, turn off the lights and lock the door, I can just check homeassistant and make sure.

Hey, that's my partner.
It's about 50/50 on whether or not the anxiety is warranted, which means any time there's a worry we basically have no choice but to check.

Tbh, learning to handle my life from that perspective has brought me a lot of relief to what would otherwise be chronic, painful anxiety/depression/obsession
