Terrible week..a lot of work anxiety. Trying to stop getting anxious over people who I can’t control how they behave, I want to learn to stop reacting all the time but it’s hard. Today my anxiety is a 6/10

My anxiety was once again pretty low. I didn’t have any coffee today.

@Disney2019 I tend to react too. It's really hard sometimes.

@Mountaindewed Less caffeine can reduce anxiety in some people.

My anxiety was moderate today. I did have an appointment that made me anxious but it went okay.

Thanks for this!

I'm feeling a little stressed. I have some chores to work on. But I have no motivation. I just want to go back to bed.

while I was in the shower today, I had some anxiety

I kept thinking that my shower chair I was sitting on was going to give way

but it didn't, and I have to say: I'm quite shocked (heavy woman)

but okay now

I'm a little anxious this morning. But I think I will meditate soon.

currently have anxiety.

so a friend of mine (irish friend) hason't checked in with me since early wednesday morning.

I like to think that the reason is because of the storm the UK is having (storm ellen), and maybe he lost his power

but I can't help feel a sense of abandonment. suppose because it's happened so many times, you get used to it

still wondering a lot about brendan (the irish friend), as I have still not heard from him.

so many possibilities (he could have no power, could be busy) yet I'm still leaning towards abandonment

Started the day in an irritable mood.

There is so much I need to do that I don't want to do. I'm hoping I can get my mind in a place of accepting the present day and not filling it with all these expectations I have of what I need to do.

Anxiety was up yesterday and I responded with a long rant-y post, but deleted it because who wants to read that. I don't even want to read it.

Today things are better, but I'm well aware that I really need to take some action to get my life moving and it's really a challenge at the moment. I'm too old to not know what I want to be when I grow up.

I had some anxiety about a package and I have some health anxiety. But I haven’t taken any Xanax yet. So it’s not that bad. I didn’t take any Visteral yesterday but I did take one early this morning. That’s pretty good that I didn’t take one yesterday.

I heard from my irish friend yesterday.

he's fine, he was just feeling down and didn't want to bother me with it

I told him it's fine, that's what friends are for

today ifeel triggered because someone used the wrong name on a letter addressed to me, and the name they used was the name of one of my abusers, so that's causing some anxiety (a lot of anxiety)

I'm anxious this morning. Two nights with pretty lousy sleep. I should have recognized that mania was inbound. Yesterday I worked on my W.R.A.P all morning, and my wife took my daughter out shopping. They came back to find me in mania. My wife was so discouraged to find it. She went and laid down for an hour to just decompress. So I'm anxious that everyone is tapped out from dealing with me (including me)

Anxiety has been controlling me these last few days. Today, I'm going to try to get myself to feel more relaxed physically through some meditation and exercise. I hope it will help me mentally.

I'm calm this morning. I'm just really tired. I feel like it's my bed time.

I don't know about you guys, but does work make your anxiety really flare up?

I wouldn't know: I don't work (and I mean that in a litiral sense, too). I've been told I can't, and what I mean by literal sense is my body, my emotions, my eating habbits, it's all screwed up.... I literally don't work

I experienced a lot of anxiety this morning. I had to get my cat in the carrier to take her to the vet. The whole experience was difficult. Now I'm waiting on the vet to get a urine sample and test her again. I'm not as anxious, but I'm finding it hard to relax while I wait.

My anxiety wasn’t through the roof type anxiety but it was still there. I did take 3 Xanax mostly just to cope with negative feelings.
