Surprises: I don't like any sort of surprise. It's really bad when ever some one shows up at my house with out telling me first, I hear the bell and think "who could that be?" and feel instant panic. I like being in control of things, it's comforting.

Undiagnosed illness: I get really anxious over different things, which lead to physical symptoms such as nausea and "brain fog" or light headedness. This leads to me worrying that there's some underlying problem (other than anxiety) that is undiagnosed and could potentially cause me more serious harm.

Shopping alone: I can't do things in public alone with out listening to my ipod. I have to shut off the rest of the world and just relax to my music, get my stuff and get the home. It's worse if I unexpectedly wind up alone in public. For example, I went shopping with my partner. We were waiting out side for our taxi home, then she realised she forgot some thing and went back inside while I was left standing out side alone. Automatically felt self concious, nauseated and light headed.

Being sick at work: Because I am plagued with feeling generally unwell in the stomach and head I find myself waking up in the morning for work and worrying that I won't feel well that day. Even though at the time I feel fine, I still worry, which results in me feeling unwell because of anxiety.

Feeling trapped: This ones been a struggle lately since moving to Northern Ireland from Australia. I feel so isolated from my family and feel trapped in the life choices I've made. Due to many reasons all I want is to be back home again, but feel obligated to stay because I made this choice. I feel I should ride it out. Which leaves me feeling absolutely trapped.

There's so many different things that trigger anxious feelings for me. These are just the main ones I tend to experience daily, rather than every other day.
