I am experiencing just a little bit of nervousness, planning a trip to get postage stamps.

I’ve had 1.5 milligrams of Xanax and it isn’t helping. Basically my anxiety just gets really out of control but I don’t actually do anything about it most of the time. I just deal with it. Lately though it’s been worse then it was during the summer when we had no idea when a vaccine was coming or what my surgery would be like and I was also drinking about 500 milligrams of caffeine some days and still didn’t have bad anxiety. So I don’t know what my problem is and why it’s gotten so unbearable these past few weeks.

I went to bed early but woke up 2.5 hours later. I'm a little anxious at the moment. I'm not sure if I should go back to bed or if I should wait until I'm really tired. I'm mainly sad at the moment. When I feel sad, I do better when I sleep.

My anxiety is really bad right now. I took a .5 Xanax half an hour ago and it is like a placebo again. Not sure maybe later next week things will be better.

I'm pretty calm this morning. I'm just a little stressed about chores. But I'm taking it one step at a time.

My anxiety is bad today. I’m trying just to focus on what I can control and try not to worry about what I can’t. Basically I’m super nervous about group but I know it’s helping me. The group part is kinda blah. I am learning new things but the once a week meetings with my Pdoc and case manager are what I think will be the most helpful.

I'm admitting to myself this morning that I am experiencing anxiety & have been for some time. I need to take a closer look at my problems & try to make doable adjustments.

My anxiety was bad today. I’ve taken 1.5 milligrams of Xanax. Haven’t eaten much though. I can’t tell why I’m so anxious although I guess it has a lot to do with my move and the program I’m in. I wish I had more one on one time during this program. I have groups but I can’t actually voice the concerns I want to. I see my case manager once a week but it’s not therapy. So I’m kinda out of luck. I have PC thankfully. I’m just not sure I am responding well to groups. I’m trying really hard though.

I'm sort of quivering throughout my awareness of everything, so I think I'm feeling nervous about something.

I was ok this morning but now I’m anxious. I just took 2 Xanax so hopefully they help. I talked to my case manager but it was mostly just a check in. She wants to talk to my regular therapist about things. I hope they don’t decide to switch me to someone else because that will absolutely crush me

I’m doing better today. I still have that anxiety but I need to tweak some things that I know are causing issues. If I can do that, that would make things a lot easier.

I feel calm today even though I have an appointment. I am almost dressed for it. So that takes a lot of the pressure off.

This is the first time in a couple weeks I haven’t felt the need to take multiple Xanax. I actually haven’t even taken my maintenance one yet. My anxiety has been pretty low all day.
