so desperately i want to relax....and writing this as my leg shakes as usual and my neck is so tense holding up shoulders that really only need to hang arms off.

cannot just let things slide....I'm a control freak in an existence I cannot control....no matter how tense I am and alert and no matter how much my leg dances all by itself.

I can't control anything....but I act like I can

somethin' inside my being is so determined....but whatever it is?... it just stresses me out!

...I just wish I never felt hyper-abilities...ever!

then wouldn't expect so much....when it just aint there

and just let it all go instead

It does sound like you need I let go the first start of that is realizing you can't control the world only your reactions to it and sometimes not even those. I hope you get to feeling less tense today. Maybe some hot tea would help? That always helps me just a suggestion.

There is very little we can control. We can control our diet but can't control if we get sick........my signature says it all and practicing acceptance is hard to do. You may not be an alcoholic but the steps of AA are so good. I used to go to Al-anon and the things I learned in the rooms helped me a great deal to handle my depression and anxiety. I was always a type A personality but I sure am not now...at least I certainly hope not. I am older then you and I have had more time to practice acceptance and that I am not in control of anything. How bad I always wanted to control events and people. I just could not understand why no one would listen to me as I always knew what is best.....Yeah right!!

"I will remind myself.....that I am powerless over anyone else or anything else,that I can live no life but my own. Changing myself for the better is the only way I can find peace and serenity."
