Got through the rest of my week pretty good, despite being semi swamped at work these last two days. So I'm sitting here on a Friday night kinda wondering if I should go out or stay in and watch a movie. My nose is stuffy and in the back of my mind I'm like great I feel like I'm getting sick so naturally i start thinking about being sick. Of course this brings on some thought of anxiety but a buddy of mine called and asked to hang out so I said sure, might as well get out the house for a little bit, clear my head.
I've been noticing as things get better with my anxiety, from time to time I will take a step back and say wait everything is going smooth.... are things supposed to be so smooth? Its like I'm sometimes on alert just waiting for the next anxiety attack to happen and I think that can bring on actual anxiety. I let these thoughts jumble up in my head for no apparent reason...
Not going to get into detail on this tonight as I'm heading out for a little while. Will touch on it later though.
Ps. I can clearly see how exercise helps with stress/anxiety, let me give you an example. Yesterday I was feeling a little stressed/over-whelmed about some news pertaining my family moving across the country. I am/was glad that we could possibly be moving however the thought of leaving here will be a big step, bigger than I imagined. So a friend of mine calls and says lets go hit some golf balls at the range, I agreed. On the way there my mood was so so. When we got there I decided I was going to take it light. After a quick stretch/warm up I was ready to go and once i started swinging about 10-15 minutes later I felt so much better and started enjoying myself that much more. It was great. My buddy gave me some good advice and I'm going to leave on that note.
Enjoy your life. Live, party, have a good time, meet people. That's what its all about.
