So there you have it. People don't look too close for fear of finding something they can't handle? Or that we might ask them for more than they can give?

What do you do to help yourself when you are anxious? If it is medications do you call someone about having them adjusted?

If I get to the point I can't manage anxiety and it escalates I call a crisis hotline. They help calm me down and suggest coping tools. I like the fact that they are there specifically to talk to and will listen reflectively.

Today, later, I am going to try to get to my local Recreation Center to swim. I really have to push hard to do these kinds of things.
