Dealing with illness again, but it's much nicer to me this time around. Did you know that relieving even a little bit of anxiety actually makes you feel ~a lot~ better?

My racing mind had me up tossing and turning until the wee hours of the morning so I just gave in and got up.

Last night my anxiety grew so big, I couldn't even cry. Finally I was able to let it out, but I'm still exhausted from it.

I had a panic attack tonight; it's been awhile and it definitely wasn't pleasant. Fortunately blasting some heavy metal and writing in my journal about it seems to have helped.
I think it's partly because I'm going to a wedding reception tomorrow -- another old friend, getting married. All the old acquaintances I've kept up with over the years are married now and here I am, 31 and not only unmarried, but a kissless virgin. I can't help but ask myself, 'Where did I go so wrong?' 'What's so terribly wrong with me that women just don't want me?' ![]() Suddenly I feel the urge to get drunk, even though I never drank at all before. I don't want to deal with this ****. I just want to disappear. I'm such a pathetic excuse for a man. ![]()

Hey all, thread newbie...am having anxiety that my brain knows is entirely pointless yet somehow it's still there! Have some issues regarding anxiety and going to work...I don't work at the moment but I'm doing some volunteering and I had a text message from someone asking what my hours were this week and it automatically made me anxious...is he mad? Am I being expected to do things? Am I going to be put under pressure to do stuff I can't do??
This is 100% baseless, and I know this, yet somehow it's still there!! Right. Am going to leave the house. Remembering to breathe in and out... |

Anxiety is high today between having a major nightmare last night and my hubby's surgery being bumped up by 6 weeks I am feeling overwhelmed and it's showing through physical symptoms like eye twitching (which is driving me nuts) and chest pain.

Very anxious about work today, again. I'm worried about being able to connect and make it through the day, despite my depression.

I've stayed up all night. I slept until around 2 yesterday. I couldn't sleep last night. I fell asleep finally around 3am. My sister hates me.
My anxiety levels are really high. I'm feeling numb like I'm going into some kind of anxiety phase. Im trying to shut my mind off. |

My anxiety spiked this morning already. I woke up around 2, remembering that I needed to take my meds out of the fridge. I then realized that this will be the 6th month I've been on my arthritis medication, so it will no longer be free. With the support program, the price climbs slowely, but without any aid it's $4,000 a month, and I just don't know how I could ever afford that. It scares me.

I am doing well today. I just got back from the grocery store which was once a major trigger for me. These days it has become a measure of my level anxiety. How did I fair inside and how quick did I run in and out. Did I procrastinate going? Was I able to linger about inside? I did very well this morning.

I was hoping to cut back on my anxiety medication due to the cost. Not this weekend.

Hi guys...
Figured it was time I posted here. Seems my anxiety has made a comeback... I've been coping very well off meds for 8 months or so but now that I'm in the process of quitting smoking it's come back. Mostly it's just in the mornings but still... I'm not even totally off nicotine yet. I mean, I'm only using my nicotine mouth spray 4 times a day, so clearly that's little enough to trigger it. Tomorrow I'll be down to 3 sprays a day & the following week off nicotine altogether. I'm trying not to worry too much about what will happen when that time comes but it's hard. I feel like I'm starting to slip into the vicious cycle of worrying again.

I'm having really bad anxiety about my health today. I've been on-and-off worrying about what my doctor said is a pulled muscle (My brain keeps telling me that it's ovarian cancer) and I almost freaked out during colorguard, but I'm trying to keep busy now

The anxiety in my life stems from the volunteer work I just signed up for. I was able to get through orientation 'safely' but that was a few weeks ago. Now I sit here since waiting to be called to go in and job shadow. The longer I wait the more anxious I get about doing so.

I had a therapy session (CBT) today. I was a touch depressed going into it but now am a bit ticked. I also have all this homework to do and it seems so hard. It is the most work I've been expected to do yet and it involves a lot of putting myself out there where I may be criticized or face negative consequences. To say I'm Anxious about this is an understatement.

Quote:
The museum called. They have a position they want me to apply for. Sounds like it's mine if I want it. It's weekends only. Has a lot of responsibility though. At least I would be working on my own. The position is taking 'old time' photos at the museum. Gosh, I'm not sure what to say or do. It's been a long time since I worked. Yes, the volunteering was intended as a stepping stone to one day working again but I did not expect it so quickly. Truth is I'm terrified. How will this affect my assistance? I know they allow for part-time work as a way to encourage you to get back in the work force. but I am afraid of two things: 1. being denied benefits altogether; and 2. failure and being stuck without benefits. |
