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.

Mini-Vacation weekend!

Hey everyone, Sorry about my absence around here lately. I've been extremely swamped at work with project after project and long days. I'm excited to announce that I will be going on a Mini Vacation this weekend. Taking a day or two off work and heading up to the mountains with some friends to snowboard and just generally relax! Hopefully I will get some time to blog a bit more. Quotes coming up tonight, stay tuned.

Loneliness

So My Saturday night was pretty boring. I didn't mind staying home but now I've got to deal with this anxiety/loneliness feeling. I was sitting in my bed, just finished watching Prince Of Persia (good movie btw) and all of a sudden I get this feeling of Loneliness and my mind starts racing with thoughts of me being lonely for the rest of my life. I get scared/nervous, best way to describe the feeling is to imagine having butterflies in your stomach but your mind racing at the same time. It wasn't quite a full anxiety attack as it rushed past me but it still lingers. This has happened before and something I read said just take life one day at a time and not think of the future. Usually that is how I like to think of things, but I feel it has to do with that I have a lot of things on my plate, plus today was generally pretty boring. I did nothing all day except when i went out to the golfing range for an hour. I will be moving out of state at the end of the year, which coul...

Depersonalization

Depersonalization, What is it? From a medical standpoint, Depersonalization (or depersonalisation ) is an anomaly of the mechanism by which an individual has self-awareness. It is a feeling of watching oneself act, while having no control over a situation.Sufferers feel they have changed, and the world has become less real, vague, dreamlike, or lacking in significance. Thats quite a harsh definition in my own opinion. In my own words, Depersonalization is a feeling (just a FEELING ) of things not looking/seeming the same. Now I don't want to get into things not seeming real because I know that they are real, to me they just seem different in a way thats hard to explain. Obviously once you think they seem different then you trigger your mind to start wandering which will start triggering some anxiety. But I can think back to even before I started having anxiety that at times I'd say things seem to look a little different which prompted me to do a little more digging. I c...
