Still don't know what hours daughter's boyfriend will be working Christmas Eve. I'm rather nervous about this, because I want to be able to plan that day and know what we're doing. It makes me anxious that he waits until the last minute to do things. It reminds me of my last abuser, who did the same thing and bragged about it.

On the plus side, everyone liked the apple pie so I will do hat Friday. My daughter is still making cookies on Saturday for her boyfriend's family's holiday dinner.

Try to work on new software to stay busy. So, yeah, that kind of day.

Anxious restless headaches

Unrigged64072835 · Dec 18, 2017 at 04:32 PM

Feeling really tired and depressed, with physical aches and pains to match. Still anxious but this has sunk me to a new low.

I'm so impressed how well u all seem to handle this anxiety monster. Handled a lot of things but this anxiety is winning. Need to go grocery shopping but don't want to leave the house even with anxiety pills in my pocket, purse, car, always within reach. Course being in control of myself has always been my thing. If Powers that be r trying to teach me something, I don't know what it is but I officially holler Uncle!

Having a good day... preparing myself for a very long 2 weeks...

I'm feeling okay at the moment. Nothing extreme. In November, last month, I've been dealing with daily bouts of anxiety that go up and down. It sucks. But I still manage to maintain despite my anxiety.

I had an anxiety attack this morning. My stomach stills feels uneasy. I see pdoc tonight, I'm nervous. I have nothing against pdoc but her office triggers my PTSD a bit so it can be hard to go there. But she's a good doctor and I only see her once a month so I keep going.

Been quite anxious today.

Unrigged64072835 · Dec 19, 2017 at 03:47 PM

Ugh...just angry and frustrated and sore. Trying to calm back down.

Love to everyone on the thread. Sending out big hugs, best wishes and positive vibes.

Unrigged64072835 · Dec 23, 2017 at 03:07 PM

Doing better. Looking forward to tomorrow.

Hope everyone gets through the holidays with some peace.

I saw the therapist today and talked about a few rough dates ahead. She suggested I get a prescription. I haven’t been taking my pills during the day because I need to stay sharp at work. I just realized that I could open my gabapentin capsules and dump out half, and that may be all I need.

I’m going to try that.

Unrigged64072835 · Dec 24, 2017 at 10:25 AM

Made cinnamon rolls this morning. Ugh, too much sugar. Now I'm jittery and waiting for this afternoon is taking forever...

Dec 24, 2017 at 04:32 PM

I woke up from a dream, believing I had gained 60 pounds back that I lost many years ago, which gave me an anxiety attack. It took me years to get that weight off. I’ve calmed down, but I’m still feeling a little nervous.

I was admitted to a mother and baby unit for postnatal depression and anxiety. My husband has been abusive. I reported him. They have me on medication to help calm me. I can’t go home to him, I’m hoping the domestic abuse workers can help me but everything has been on standstill over Christmas. I’m afraid of how he’ll react when he finds out I reported him and I’m not coming home

I haven't posted here for a while regarding my anxiety. I have been in such a state for weeks; and now, I am in all out fear and stress mode.

My disability assistance is being cut off. The last cheque is for January.

I am struggling to find work. I need an income in January so as to pay my rent for February.

Unrigged64072835 · Dec 26, 2017 at 02:12 PM

Christmas is over. Whew!

My husband and I are working on goals for next year. Like everything else, it's dependent on keeping track of things and having self-discipline.

I am really nervous about next year, though, so I hope outside influences don't ruin everything.

Anxiety growing with each new day. I am feeling less confident and more and more worthless too.

I have to find a job - soon. I received my last disability check today and will need an income with which to pay rent come February.

I knew full well this was a crappy time of year to be looking for one. As of this date I have applied for 26 jobs - and not heard from a single one. This is all very disconcerting and hits my confidence and self-esteem quite hard. What is wrong with me I am asking myself? It is reaching the point that I worry too that I am suffering paranoia and jumping to every negative conclusion that can be thought of.

This is not a situation I have ever been in before. I've normally had a choice of job offers. I am really freaking out.
