Change may be good but change makes me anxious/worried. I get used to things being in a certain way or at a certain place and don't like it when it changes.
My mh centre is moving not too far away to a different building and already i'm worrying about navigating my way around and fearful there'll be more corridors and such like to make my way round to the waiting area and to have my injection.
I have this fear of navigating myself around and taking wrong turnings . I know it probably sounds silly for a 55 year old man but i can't help it.
The current place is very easy and i know just where to sit to wait for my injection or to see the doctor.

I am also worrying myself silly at the prospect of living off money till it runs down to a certain level, and what i have been used to for years which is having regular money come in which i can sometimes save a little bit from.
I try not to project ahead and catastrophise and live in the moment but it is very hard for me to do. The ways things have been and are being radically changed by the government has made it that much harder to look forward several years and not fear the worst.

Sometimes i wish i could stop time and hide away somewhere safe. It's like i felt years ago , for several years when first ill,when i used to curl into a foetal position.

capricorn, it's exactly the same in the part of the u.k. where i am. our mh centre is shutting down to be merged with one in another neighbourhood and everyone is stressing, so i do understand. and i understand the worry about financial security in the future, same here.
Thanks for this!
