One day at a time TPND! You know, anxiety is funny because we are so uncomfortable with our feelings we loath being in the present so we live in the future or we live in the past. When you live in the future it actually makes your anxiety worse because you worry about it. This is one thing that I did so that I could live each moment in the present. I forced myself (as tolerated!) to live in the present each moment. I would sit with those uncomfortable feelings but this forced me to work on them. You work on all of these uncomfortable things and then they get resolved and then you can live in the present comfortably. Life is so much richer actually experiencing it. Of course each person is different and can tolerate living in the present differently. Maybe you have to do it gradually?
