I had definite anxiety today. I told my mom I didn’t want to go to a store because the neighborhood was freaking me out. I also had her come into the room while I was getting my shot. I let her go off while I was waiting my 15 minutes but only because I didn’t feel like watching her take forever to pick out a birthday card and stand in line with her. But then when my 15 minutes were up I had a mini panic attack and I texted where she was and then called her. So I had about 2 panic attacks, a lot of anxiety, and now I’m having some probably not a big deal health anxiety.

I'm shaking. I feel very nervous, scared, injured everywhere inside me. So many things to deal with. I have to find the right thoughts to calm myself & give me courage. I just now remembered I have uplifting quotes for encouragement pinned to my browser topsites. Maybe they can help me.

My anxiety is bad and I guess it’s understandable anxiety. But I’m having a lot of health anxiety which may or may not be real. But I’ve had some strange bleeding going on that is for sure real and is probably not a very good sign. I can’t get to a doctor until I find one in the area and I need a really good understanding and accepting one. So I can’t just go to anyone. My therapist is trying to find me one. My therapist is also a source of my anxiety though. So I’m just trying to work around stuff. It hasn’t been continuously this bad in awhile. I’ve switched to caffeine free soda. I just drink my regular cold brew coffee every day because my anxiety is even worse when I don’t have coffee.

I just looked at my calendar and it’s very possible I’m dealing with PMS and with this unusual bleeding maybe it’s worse then usual. I could also be having a psych reaction to my Covid shot yesterday. My therapist says it’s possible.

I feel calm today. I had a to-do list and I was able to get every item on the list. I just took my time.

Struggling with hyper vigilance right now. It makes it hard to get things done.

I feel calm. And I cut my Klonopin in half the past few days cause it was making me sleepy. I think it interacts with Cymbalta. I don't remember Klonopin making me so sleepy before.

My anxiety and physical stuff has gotten so bad these last 2 days when I take a Xanax. I don’t know what the Xanax has to do with it. It sucks when my anxiety is rough but taking my anxiety meds makes things even worse.

My anxiety was getting pretty sucky and starting to cause nausea. I took 2 Xanax and a zofran. I don’t know if they will do anything but I’ll try. I just am unsettled and I have the creeps. I don’t have the feeling like anything bad will happen but I just feel nervous and on edge.

Anxiety is bad again. Had lots of racing thoughts late last night.

I don't have that anxious feeling but I am stressed out about an appointment today. I'll feel better once I finish getting dressed.

Trying really hard to bring my courage up. I'm using self talk. Also praying for wisdom. I am experiencing anxiety, but just moments ago I kept it from rising by counting to a 100 several times.

The weird paranoia stuff I had last week is gone. Which was probably because of the vaccine. I got to the stores today and I didn’t freak out and leave. I managed to get to quite a few of them. But my anxiety was still tough and I couldn’t really focus anywhere.

I am waiting for an important call from a family member. It is stressful to wait. I'm usually glad for silence, but right now I want to hear my phone.

I was able to leave my house again and take a walk around my neighborhood and then go shopping. This time I actually bought stuff. I had a brief panic attack at a store, but I mean someone was being visibly creepy so it wasn’t like I was imagining things. In general my anxiety was low today.

My anxiety was better most of today. Had some difficult moments, but overall I did ok. Only thing is, I avoided things I was hoping I could do, so I'm feeling disappointed in myself for that.

I am having anxiety every time I get started to do work. I like my job but sometimes customers are un collaborative. And I have anxiety not about talking to them but more about getting angry and saying the wrong thing.

It's late and I'm afraid to go to sleep. I worry that I will toss and turn all night. I would rather wait until late and just sleep until the sun comes up. Maybe I need a PRN to calm down.

It seemed that I was better most of today. A few upsets, but I managed to talk myself out of those.
