What is wrong with me. I was good last week and horrible today. I'm not depressed more bed ridden again. I want my body back I want to lift and run I want to do my Kung fu, but when it comes to it a horrible fear and anxiety overrides me and I feel safer at home. How do I overcome this struggle?

I understand your frustration.

I try to look for "progress, not perfection" in my own life.
Otherwise, it just gets too frustrating.

Hugs to you.

Thanks for this!

Boogie, I don't think you remember me, but quite a while ago I felt the same. You taught me that if I could get out of bed and do 5 pushups I was winner and that meant that I could do 6 the next night...and so on and so on
I'll bet you can do 5 pushups.

Are you having some possible agoraphobia (sp?) or general anxiety? Or maybe you're having some med side effects? I would talk to my pdoc if I were you. ((HUGS))

I'm in the same boat. I deal with chronic pain and sickness. I've been nearly bedridden for a year. I've been getting out of bed and out of the house more often lately, but not as much as I need to. I'm making progress though so I'm trying not to beat myself up too much.

I know it's hard, but try not to beat yourself up. Instead, think of small changes you can make and try to build on them daily. I wish you luck. (((Hugs)))

I'm in a similar situation, not only have I been in a depressive episode (I know you said you weren't depressed) for the past couple of months, now I'm in active grieving (my Grandpa just passed) so now I just feel like I can't get out of bed and do anything other than eat and shower (Idk it's like.a.compulsion for me to shower), the anxiety though is just horrible, I don't even want to look outside let alone go outside, I'm too upset and paranoid. Anyway sending you some hugs.
