Anxiety Daily Check-In point #8

Mountaindewed · May 09, 2022 at 12:15 PM

I had anxiety about leaving my house. But I knew I needed to. And once I did it was fine and I was glad I did. Now I just have the normal health anxiety which I am not sure is just anxiety. But at this moment theres nothing I can do but just wait until my appointment tommorow.

A bit anxious. I'm going to try and get some items for pick up in store so I could go out. I did not get enough sleep last night so I need more sleep.

My wishful thinking turned out to be an actual medical issue according to an Xray and now I'm trying not to have a panic attack but I can feel it happening every time I swallow which just makes me want to swallow even more. And I'm concerned I'll need surgery to get rid of it if its causing me distress along with actual medical symptoms. I just took my last valium, a bit late. Hopefully I calm down.

My anxiety was better most of today.

I just came back from the grocery store. I almost had a panic attack in there. Its way too hot to wear a hoodie. So I was wearing a Hollister T shirt and black cargo shorts and Vans and a baseball hat. No one was paying me any attention but I was just so freaked out. My arms are covered in bruises from various blood tests but again no one seemed to notice me at all. I exchanged looks with the self checkout guy but I looked at him first. I got everything I wanted but this agoraphobia sucks and I don't remember it being this bad this time last year when I was 17 pounds heavier. Shouldn't I have more confidence? My mom says I was so anxious because I haven't been eating enough but I've been drinking too much soda. I just don't get what the difference is really between last year and this year besides the weight loss and not wearing masks. But I have a full beard so its not like I don't pass or anything like that. I truly don't get It.

My anxiety was super rough today. I took all 3 of my valium by noon. I did get a medium iced coffee but I didn't sleep well as a result of the anxiety. Its just this lump in my throat I have and its causing me to borderline panic almost because I feel like I can't breathe. I didn't even bother leaving my house besides getting the coffee and I didn't eat much since eating stresses me out. Plus theres the whole self control part which goes in the ED sub and not the anxiety part of this forum. Anyways currently I'm super stressed, sleep deprived, and feeling panicky.

The anxiety is up & down. I've been reading helpful articles on the internet, & hanging out here at the forums, which helps a lot.

mild anxiety throughout the day. It is because I have to pick up my meds at two different pharmacies around the corner. I did it so it would be ready so I am nervous.

I've had a lot of anxiety lately since driving to a new state. When things get too overwhelming I just dissociate and become numb.

Very apprehensive right now, like something is lurking around the corner.

I've been away for a couple months or so, trying to clear my head. As always, life has been a roller coaster. The last couple of days have been pretty good, because I'm actually taking action to improve things.

Then I googled some symptoms that my dog is having and got the impression he's probably not going to be around much longer. Going to see the vet in the morning to get things checked on.

My anxiety is up because of all of that. I've always had bad health anxiety about myself, mostly because I don't want to get sick and be dependent on doctors and nurses in my final days. Like my parents.

I don't want my dog to suffer and I'm trying to keep myself from falling apart about him. I gave him a hot dog for lunch and he seemed to enjoy it more than his normal food. I'm going to go out for a bit to get him some better food and treats.

Possible trigger:

This does clear things up for my own timeline though. The other dog is doing well and would easily be adopted. But this might also be a motivator to make me get back into my life, maybe even make me want to continue. Who knows. I'm just worried about my boy.

Thanks for reading.

I'm wondering how just straight up asking my doctor for more valium will go. I don't know. I guess I'm just kinda numb from it all.

My sister is a hostile, rabid bully. I am a kind, peaceful person. I try to take up for my mother, brother and myself but it always ends up with her screaming and name calling. It makes me physically ill and really anxious. I don’t know what the answer is. It’s upsetting.

Jennifer, do you think it's a mental illness? It seems like her type somehow haunts a lot of families. I know what it's like enduring that. I'm sorry you have to deal with that, when you are the way you are especially.

I'm not scared to die if I'm being honest. If it even comes to that. I don't know. This monkey pox is a bit unsettling but all I've seen is clickbait no major news networks have reported much on it. I think my trending google page is messed up. But personally I am not afraid of dying.

A whirlwind of anxiety and depression. Scared and sad. It's too much.

May 19, 2022 at 07:32 PM

My anxiety is out of control right now I hate it. Panic attacks are the devil

May 20, 2022 at 07:36 PM

Roller coaster as always. Things are a little better now. Still very worried about my dog. He's OK today. Happy for that.

Mountaindewed · May 21, 2022 at 02:12 PM

My anxiety was up and down all day. Now I'm just tired.

No anxiety really.
