Anxiety Daily Check-In Point! #2

Anxiety was grand till my heart gave a little flutter again today thankfully my medication stops adrenaline as i felt i was about to have a panic attack again.

My vacation was pretty relaxing, and was very much needed. I stayed home for the Christmas holidays for the most part, but got to go to my grandparents later on. Thanks for welcoming me.

that sounds really nice.

i hope you have a good 2015

Not a lot of anxiety so far now but I'm very upset about the state of my apartment. I wish my back didn't hurt so I could get something done.

I'm trying to be patient with my pdoc but I wish I could get a little more relief from the anxiety-it's so draining to deal with. My meds increase later this week so I'm hoping this will help-we had to go into SF yesterday for my husband's pre surgery visit & I thought I would die from being in the traffic. When I get all panicky in the car like that I feel like I can't breathe & all I can think of is I want out of this car-hard to believe I used to drive every day in this traffic. Makes me feel like the stupid anxiety is winning.

My anxiety is high and my pdoc cancelled my appt. for tomorrow. I moved recently and this was my first meeting with him. I was with my last Pdoc for 20 yrs and I don't know what to expect from this new guy.

I'm getting a little anxious, this coming Monday is my first day of college (online courses). Just worried about how I will do.

Have an appointment with the pdoc today. I'm worried about what she'll say when I tell her the Geodon isn't going well. Last time the alternative was Lithium — I'm horrible with blood tests so that drug is out of the question.
I'm also freaked out about everything leading to the appointment: washing up, getting dressed, etc.

I have a grocery delivery today and I'm very worried and anxious about whether it will go smoothly and well. It will be difficult putting things away and standing up and bending. I need trash taken out and I'm counting on the driver doing it for an extra tip. I'm very nervous.

Angelene, I can relate to how you feel about the appointment, I'm the exact same way, but worse. I have to start getting ready days in advance. For example, I can't pack my purse the day I go because I'll forget to bring things I need so I have to pack it in advance. It's things like that, many small things, that make it such a big production now. I wish I had my old self back. I could do everything. And my outfit, everything needs to be planned and done in advance of the day I go. Mainly because my back is too bad to stand up and do all the little things like look for clothes.

Today was a good day, handled my anxiety really well, paced myself so I didn't get overwhelmed & talked with my tdoc today.

((((((HUGS))))))

Thank you! They turned out having most of my bingeing foods out of stock. Anyway I got through the delivery. Tipped way more than I could have. Oh well. Hoping your day went well too.

I have access to my classes now, so I'm going to start working on them tomorrow. I am very nervous, I was even nervous about making an introduction post to other classmates, so scared to fail, but I'm really excited and happy to say I'm a college student

We're rooting for you, Blue_Bird!

Really good day today, feel good, managing all my different issues well & just enjoyed the day, smiled a lot & no anxiety in the car while running errands yay! I'm going to start taking my evening propranolol earlier around 5pm & see how that goes.

Had a good day today.

feeling so bad again, like pressure would crush me, like I would be dying and I'm scared.. can bad weather make feel like dying, weak, heavy, dizzy, trigger anxiety and panic attack?...

Really anxious today, stressed about college. I mean, I'm excited to be starting but some of the material is way over my head.

At times the weather affects & worsens both my psych issues & chronic pain so I can relate. When I lived in the south we had lots of violent storms in the spring & summer & they really freak me out. Hope you feel better soon.

was fine for most of today,

but now having this sudden anxiety for no apparent reason and it's really intense

That is a horrible feeling. I've had panic attacks that are terrifying. I no long try to fight them off. I use more of a riding the wave of anxiety and talk to myself about what it is just accept what's going on with my body. I do not like it at all. The difficulty breathing, the tight throat, the impending doom, and all that sucks but I ride it and explain to myself that it will pass and it does.

Feeling much better now, my thoughts were getting so irrational.

I bought some things and they temporarily made me feel better but now I'm looking around at all this stuff I have and it's making me anxious. I haven't been getting rid of enough unused items lately. I also haven't been moving things out of the living room and into my bedroom where they belong.
I should probably deal with this stack of mail first. It seems like it should be the easiest.

Had a brief panic attack today, but it passed.

Thanks Turtlesoup the weather is better and I feel better now. disconnected and feeling like crazy but not scared. living with disorders and abusive family is enough bad but damn weather have to make everything even worse *sigh*
