I think I’m unsettled generally at the moment, my work situation has been especially challenging and I notice my resilience dips when I’m stressed, so my anxiety is generally spiking.

The second friend got in touch and they’ve had a lot going on, so there’s a reason they don’t read or reply to me every time.

The other friend, well I guess Christmas is a trigger because we’d always meet up and I’d get her children gifts which I really enjoyed.

But the Christmas party went really well and no one even mentioned her not coming along and that’s reassured me.

Cool09 that sounds tough, it must be stressful if you don’t like being around people. I guess my anxiety is a little different in that I do like being around people I like but get stressed by bigger groups.
