for me it's sleep and overeating.

sleep... even the doctors arn't really sure what to try with me next (and that's a worrying sign)

overeating.. I don't know. it's just one of those things that never ggoes away and seems to get worse by day.

what is yours

My anxiety

My emotional responses. I either way over react or dont react at all. This grey area people speak of remains elusive still thus far.

Sleep and stress overload. And panic although meds help.

I don't get any help for sleep, it's like it's not important.

many issues but i think my borderline switching is the big one i can't control.

Anxiety .. sleep.. mood... thoughts...

I’m also not over impressed by the emphasis on “getting it under control”

But I know I can’t change them

Anxiety & avoidance in an attempt to avoid the anxiety...

Controlling my emotions.

I'm another one in for the "anxiety and avoidance" train. This is a major problem for me. Also urges to SI. I won't do it, but I get urges almost every day. It's frustrating

Anxiety and obsessions.

Ha. More like what parts CAN I get control of?

I cannot stop being severely anxiety, cannot stop worrying, cannot stop thinking terrible, frightening, intrusive thoughts. Cannot stop being exhausted. Cannot get control of my emotional reactions. Cannot stop feeling hurt by "friends and family" who gladly use my abilities to follow through on promises and to step up and stand up for them - but who are never there when I ask them for help. Cannot stop obsessing over upsets, decisions, worries. Cannot escape. Cannot stop feeling suicidal. Cannot stop regretting having taken decades of meds that don't do much except cause me to gain weight. Cannot be grateful for what I have, because all I truly have are my precious cats...and I thank God or whoever for them.

The only residual crap that I still struggle with is sleep. For many years I would wake up from the same dream when I was stressed. I would stay up all night....think my subconscious didn't want to dream that dream......until I was so exhausted I slept so soundly & didn't dream (or remember them)....well those stressful interfaces are almost over when I get the marriage assets part of my divorce finalized.....but I still seem to struggle with sleep. I found that an eye-dropper of 1800 mg CBD oil under my tongue is the best thing to get me to sleep. Within about 15 minutes after taking it.....I am out & don't wake up hung over the next morning like I did with the meds I was given. Natural works best for me. I am at a whole different place in life & the nightmares are no longer happening either. Life is becoming peaceful, the way I always thought it should be.

The unhelpful thoughts that arise out of anxiety. I can't seem to challenge them.
