Having a lot of anxiety today. Nothing helps it. I don't know what to do. I stopped klonopin 2 wks ago so I could get ECT in the hospital. I got 4 treatments and couldn't take anymore ECT (from the confusion).

I’m wondering if all anxiety is nothing but thoughts that trigger the feeling of fear ?

I don’t handle change well, if at all.

We’re close to the end of this season, which means starting next season, ‘The Price is Right’ will be filming in an entirely new studio for the first time in over a decade.

Honestly, I wish I’d never found out about the move cause now I’m scared it’ll be too different. We’re not losing Drew in any way, which helps a lot, but I still don’t like the thought of it.

Me either. People expect me to take it in stride.

It's not so bad for me if I get a heads up. But 99% of the time I don't and it's always somebody else's change forced on me. Easing into it helps, if I can do that. I can't even stand it when my show airs on another day than the one I'm used to. CNN changed their headline ticker to a much smaller font. It's even harder to read.

Anyway I hate change and anything I have that nobody can interfere with....I hang on to it like a life preserver. My morning coffee is an example.

I don’t handle Drew being hurt in any way well either, fictional context or otherwise.

I’ve been going through his sitcom and the season I’m on ends with him in a coma. I know it’s not real and that he was and is okay irl, but I’m still not ready to see that.

Plus, there’s been a few times where he’s hosted TPIR with a sling on and/or while using a cane, and I was so shaken by it that it’s not even funny.

I - I think I’m afraid that one day something will happen to him that he won’t recover from.

I know, I’m weird and stupid. I’ll show myself out.

Anxiety Daily Check-In: Take a moment to pause and reflect. Notice your thoughts, emotions, and physical sensations. Breathe deeply and acknowledge them without judgment. Practice self-compassion and remind yourself that you are doing your best. Take small steps towards self-care and seek support when needed.

Struggling with something. I guess a fear of loneliness and loss, and a loss of relationships. Feeling stuck. Not in control of my environment. Not really safe.

Signs of the big move are everywhere now.

They’re even having a ‘farewell to the old studio’ episode on Monday and I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to watch it without crying - or even if I’m going to be able to watch it at all.

My saving graces, if you will, are that Drew isn’t leaving and that he doesn’t like the move any more than I do, but I’m still scared. What if he changes his mind about leaving after the move?

Honestly, I wish I could talk to Drew about this.

Have a lot of intrusive thoughts when I'm anxious like "I'm never going to get better" and "This will never end" and I think of all of the doctors/nurses over the years who snubbed me when I told them I was anxious.

I struggle with feeling anxious in basic settings. I'm impressed with people who don't have anxiety who go to work and deal with situations. Basic social settings freak me out. I wish I wasn't like this

I’m so not ready for today’s episode.

I know I can just watch old ones on YouTube and/or Pluto if I need to but it hasn’t been doing much to help so far.

Nor does it help that I’ve had a couple of nightmares where Drew decides to leave the show after the move. My brain knows he’s not going anywhere but my anxiety doesn’t.

Guess what. I’m not out of the woods yet in terms of the big move.

Now there’s going to be a primetime ‘farewell to the old studio’ episode in a few weeks as well as the one that aired on Monday. I’m going to watch, but only once cause I don’t need to give myself more anxiety.

I should be asleep (or at least laying down) but there’s a ginormous insect in my room and I’m scared. It’s also flying too fast and high for me to get rid of it.

Oh, and to me, anything bigger than a fly is ginormous - and whatever this is is bigger than a fly.
