I never pegged it as anxiety. Interesting. To me, anxiety is more urgent, more pressured, more immediate and physical...there is a measure of anxiety brought about by the feeling of an impending crash, but I'm having trouble calling the impending crash anxiety. It's more of a recognition of the feelings before crashes in the past, and knowing that this respite won't be a long one... maybe I have to rethink my definition of anxiety though?
I got out for a good portion of the day yesterday (ok, 4 hours, but since I hadn't really been out of bed much in 2 months, that's huge). The feeling of "brewing" is still there. It's quieter, but very much still feel like a dam is about to break... have to run some more errands today and hope they will keep me occupied enough.
