Anxiety Daily Check-In point #5

I wasn’t feeling anxious at all today. I just really wasn’t feeling good. My mom says I’m not eating enough and that’s why I’m getting dizzy.

Because they treat my BP and BPD first, my GAD goes on the back burner. My Mental Health Care center is changing staff AGAIN. This causes worse anxiety. I am thinking about leaving there, and going to a shrink at another office. I am worried she won't take my BP and BPD as seriously, because I am coping with them better. Plus, I am not sure medications really will work for my GAD. Today I have to go to town, and get some paperwork and other things done, and am feeling a bit overwhelmed. In 3 days, I have to travel over 2 hours to a dental appointment, I am scared about. Haven't been to a dentist in over 10 years. Next week, my son and his new wife are coming for a visit for a week, and I don't have much food for them. I am a bit overwhelmed, and worried about all of these things. I think 'normal' people enjoy visits, and take care of appointments in stride. I remember being capable of things decades ago. I wonder why I have GAD now. I am just feeling a bit sick with all of these things ahead of me.

An unexpected change in schedule caused me some anxiety today (it's an autism thing). But I'm feeling okay now.

My anxiety wasn’t too bad today. It’s a nice change from the past 4 Christmases.

A lot of anticipation, but very little anxiety.

I was appointed to be one of the Master of Ceremony at Workplace New Year party... and it's only two days later from today.

I feel so nervous. I'm kinda proud that they trusted me, but more nervous and anxiety rather than the excitement.

I was a MC once. But it was a few years ago, and it was a formal event... so, most of my speech was already written and prepared by the comitee. I only read that.

But this time is different. Yes it is an informal event and the people are nice.... but, they are more people than the last event. Also, we're so unprepared. The event is two days from today, and it's night already. I have very low preparation and short time....

I keep chanting, "I can do it"....

Wish I could.....

Ugh... it's the day. Please make me good. I'll be good.

Some anxiety. It’s to be expected with a few days off from work though. I go back tomorrow. I just now started the new bottle of Xanax I got refilled on the 17th of December. I’m not really taking it as prescribed. Today was a 2 Xanax day though.

it went awfully. My mind will get occupied with this anxiety for days.

I hate it

I took a Xanax last night and then had a lot of carbs. Which I always seem to think helps with my anxiety. So my anxiety wasn’t too bad today. Despite being in plenty of anxiety provoking situations.

I didn’t have too much anxiety during the day. I had this weird kind of panicky anxiety this afternoon around 5:15. I’m not sure what it was about. It may have been acid reflux from the marinara sauce in my dinner.

A major source in my anxiety is work. I am anxious enough to go in each day, often being physically ill before doing so. This is complicated by the fact that my duties will change on a dime which is excruciatingly difficult for me. I am constantly having to adapt to sudden change - change that comes with little notice. Add to this that new responsibilities and duties affecting my role will fall in my lap with no preparation, training, or support.

I have been scheduled for a shift next week that comprises of duties I have not entirely been trained for. I am already in panic mode.

My anxiety is very high today. I’ve agreed to go to a New Year’s Eve party and I really just want to stay home and take it at a slower pace.

I've had a reoccurring headache since Sunday. I wonder if it is from thinking about returning to work this week after time off.

I had a little bit of anxiety early this morning. But besides that it wasn’t too bad.

I'm a bit anxious because my mom doesn't feel that good since yesterday and my dad is sort of limping because of his leg muscle. They are not that old, my mom is 58 and my dad 64.

I can’t tell if I’m getting physically sick, I have a lump in my throat and a headache, so I might be, or if I’ve been wearing my shape-wear for too long. I’ve taken my two Xanax today. Which is kind of unusual. I usually just take one. I still have this odd feeling though. I wasn’t too hungry today, but I also ate stuff. It’s just like every time I breathe I get this weird feeling in my throat.

My anxiety is bad today. It’s work related. There’s nothing I can do about it. I plan on taking Xanax all day on Monday though.

Anxiety was bad at work since made a phone call which caused social anxiety.

anxiety is... moderate, somewhere like a 4/10
