Better Understanding

Things have been getting better for the most part. Something that has been haunting me since this all started is "when is it going to end" and since my last blog post I've found that answer. Anxiety will be with me for the rest of my life and I am OK with that. How i deal with my anxiety ultimately will affect the outcome of the situation.

There are good days and there are some days where I will have an anxious feeling from time to time. If I let that anxious feeling take control then things can take a turn for the worst and I can have a full-blown anxiety attack, which we all know is no fun. Instead I try to re-adjust or refocus my thoughts on other things to pre-occupy my mind. Saying that now is much easier than saying it before because it was hard to learn how to control my thoughts when anxiety rears its ugly head.

Keeping the blog short today, I've got a headache from going into the city this morning.

As always I will keep my progress logged on my blog.

Off days

Although things have been going pretty well, there are always OFF days where you don't feel like your normal self and in turn initiate anxious/uncomfortable feelings, thoughts, worries, ect.

Once I got over the initial anxiety I was just left with an uncomfortable feeling all day. I lost my appetite at lunch time but still ate something so I wouldn't start feeling worse from lack of food. At lunch I was able to call my mom and speak to her to help ease my mind. Got through the rest of the day without an issue. Ever since then, this happed quite a few weeks ago, I've been having up and down days. Some days I feel alright but some d...

Anxious Days lately

Blah. My anxiety has been running rampant this past week and I cannot seem to figure out why. It could be because I have a vacation coming up, possibly nervous about traveling? I've never been to Mexico, where I'm traveling to, but don't think I my mind should be racing. And whats even more puzzling is the thoughts in my mind aren't even related to my trip! I've been thinking about my life, my career path, Am I crazy, Is everything ok.....the normal stuff. What is my mind trying to tell me that needs some adjustment? We've got some lay-offs happening at work which only started this week which can add to it but I've accepted the fact that if I were to get laid off I'd be alright with that, its honestly out of my control! The worst part about not having a job if it were to happen is staying home. Work for me is a get out of the house and interact activity, I get to work with different people on a daily basis and its something I truly enjoy. We've b...
