Anxiety Daily Check-In point #5

Extreme anxiety today causing migraines

My trip this past weekend has done good for my anxiety. I feel a lot better and more relaxed because I had a good weekend.

I had a lovely experience today- relating to anxiety

I went to the shop to buy myself some cola and started having a panic attack in the shop. the person behind the till spotted me and what was going on, and stopped what he was doing just long enough- so I could calm down, pull myself together, and get what I needed

I left that shop in tears- it's so rare people do that sort of thing, their is so much stigma usually

but my anxiety is okay.. not completely none, their is a bit- but not enough to really notice

I so need to get out of this house, even for a few days. So anxious and depressed here.

I'm not very good today. I feel like I could stay in bed all day and hide under the sheets. I don't want people to see me and I don't want to see people.

Have to go to work though. I find it difficulty sometimes to show empathy on days where I'm not feeling well mentally. I'm glad to have awesome colleagues. It's a pity my contract ends in five weeks. My new job is not going to be that good I fear.

Can't seem to stop ruminating. Have to work, but I want to disappear.

I have 2 things flipping me out today.

1- my favorite red bracelet is broken, and I'm not sure if I'll be able to fix it

2- I don't have the right type of garlic bread in the house for my pizza, and the shop near me is sold out

and I can't eat pizza and garlic bread if I don't have the right type of garlic bread

Called two contractors to get estimates on house repairs. One estimate is good for a year so that's good.

Anxious about this as I surprised my husband and he wasn't too pleased.

Just at total odds with the world, it's difficult. I believe my social anxiety is really AvPD.

I've thought the same about myself, which is probably why I've been sucking at this relationship I'm in...

Yesterday I felt pretty anxious before going to work, but I just reminded myself that everything is going to be okay and everything happens for a reason. If i feel anxious I try to tell myself that everything will be ok.

anxiety is low.
I was able to fix the bracelet and now it's better than before (I'm thrilled!)

things causing me anxiety today:

financial stuff, and someone who I feel deserves a bit of payback

I'm ok for today, but I'm dread for tomorrow. There are so many works to do.

I wish my boss would finish one project at a time. It is so tiring to do so many projects at one time. It is also uneffective. He doesn't even remember all the progresses.

Just got back from the shopping trip with the kids. Traffic was terrible, even for mid-afternoon on a weekday. So many frigging semis! I'm still shaking and I wasn't driving.

It's done, so glad for that. Now to calm down.

I'm so anxious right now! I tried taking a walk outside. I tried a guided imagery meditation but I can't lie down because of my sciatica. I called friends. I put cold water on my face.

I'm supposedly starting Savella tomorrow but I'm anxious about that too. My therapist is on vacation. I'm doing slow breathing. Helps a little. I'm depressed about my physical health. I wish I could die but I don't want to die. I just want to feel better!! I have too many doctors and they have different opinions! I'm so confused!! And miserable. Can anyone help? Thank you.

Well, I listened to some music and feel a little better. Now I'm more depressed than anxious. And very tired!

My anxiety wasn’t all that bad. But I took two Ativan, so It must have been worse then I realized. My cat is having surgery tomorrow. I think it’s bothering me more then I’m letting on. I also chugged 10oz Of chocolate cold brew coffee. So who knows. I don’t have work tomorrow. I’m relived but my hours are really not bad. I’m off before noon. I could probably do 7 days a week at these hours, but it’s usually just 3-4 days.

Anxiety attack this morning and could go into work. Still recuperating from this morning.

Mornings are just the worst

hopefully you will feel better soon.

(((((hugs)))))

afternoons are hell for me when it comes to anxiety.

what I usually say to myself is, do it in the morning- before your anxiety gets too high

anxiety a little high... just about these flashbacks i'm having- they are quite bad today

it's why I'm on here at a wierd time to try and distract myself

Putting in a contract for major house repairs, daughter's boyfriend broke a part on their car, didn't want to tell her what's going on, and then tried to blame my husband. Husband then collapsed--maybe a combination of overheating and stress, I don't know. He's trying to calm down in our bedroom with the portable AC unit running. I'm giving him an hour and if he's not doing better we're going to the ER. I'd take him to the ER anyway because of the MS but he wants to wait.

My anxiety is through the roof.

I'm alright, but a bit stress over financial situation

no anxiety attacks today, Thank God!
