Well for some time my anxiety has been fairly low. Those blips that have come up have been manageable.
But I have a something looming that has that worry rising. I've found myself reluctantly agreeing to help out with a large event. It has me worried that I might be expected to run the registration or cash (I just feel dumbed down by my meds and don't want to embarrass myself). I am a little ticked and worried about getting there. The bus route no longer goes anywhere near the function and it is a long walk - especially if I want to dress up with nice shoes (yes, a first world problem I know). I am also worried about being alone. These are my boyfriend's people and he has just had to back out of going leaving me alone. He will be visiting though as he has this second event he can't get out of. In addition I have a guest from out of town. My place is awful tiny, she will have to stay on the couch. Having a full house leaves me anxious too.
Time to pull out some CBT worksheets and the worry stone.
