Off to a rough morning.

Not sure whats going on today but I'm off to a rough morning. This week has been a little stressful as I've been having some anxious thoughts and I started the week on the wrong foot. Sunday and Monday i didn't get enough sleep which was partially my fault and had me feeling a bit anxious on Tuesday... ok that's expected since its important to get the right amount of sleep daily!

Tuesday night i made it a priority to get to bed early since i felt both physically and mentally exhausted. Got way more than I bargained for since we got hit with a storm and work ended up having a delayed opening. Had a pretty relaxed day on Tuesday nothing major. Wednesday comes and I'm feeling a little under the weather, like a mild cold. so after work I decide to go grab myself some cough drops and airborne. Get home and i drink that airborne, still felt a little crappy and I went about my business. About to go to sleep and I have a little anxiety but nothing crazy so I shrugged it off and went to sleep. This morning I woke up rested and proceeded to go about my day. On the car ride to work my mind was racing like a roller coaster, don't really know why but I just made me feel like I was going crazy. So I'm here at work now trying to figure out what is causing this anxiety. Possible Scenarios:

Airborne (I've never taken it before)
Getting Sick (Never heard of a common cold triggering anxiety)
Stressed out (school has started and I've got a project that needs to get done but I've been having a hard time since I cannot find the material to write about)

So as a result I've stopped taking the airborne because its something that is new to my body and I cannot think of anything else that could be causing this anxiety. Could it be school related? Possibly and that bring up a good point because the first time that I had my HUGE anxiety attack back in June/July I was actually in the middle of doing homework.

Whatever the case may be I don't like it, I hate when my mind races uncontrollably especially when I'm at work, thank goodness its slow right now and I can focus on getting some work done.

Strongly considering therapy, thoughts?

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...
