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 been told that my department is safe, for now. I'm also eager to get my car running again, which hasn't been the smoothest journey thus far.

I want to say what triggered this is my neck issues. In my last post I mentioned that I started going to a Chiropractor for neck pain, slept bad a while ago and never got over it. While I've been getting better its quite a slow process as there is work (exercises and such) that needs to get done to re-align my posture and spine. I'm a huge health freak and get worried when it comes to my own health which isn't the greatest thing I know! Pair that with the meningitis outbreak I saw on the news, not connected as those have been linked with steroids for back pain which I've never taken, and you have a recipe for some anxiety I believe. Hopefully this vacation will get my mind off things.

I bought myself a little e-book reader and plan to take some good reading material with me for the flight and for those lazy beach days.

Just needed to vent a bit ....

If the room has wifi I will be sure to post next week!

Thursday Morning Blues

Woke up this morning feeling a little anxious for no reason. Woke up around 1AM to use the bathroom and felt this way but I quickly went back to sleep. So i got up this morning, drank some tea (Chamomile) to help me relax and started browsing the web to help take my mind off things. Work so far is pretty slow which is good but I wouldn't mind it getting a little busy, that helps me focus on work more and less anxiety. Got some light music going in the background and I'm going to start reading shortly. Figure I'd write about it, So long.

Some Changes

Just a quick Update, I changed the look a little bit to accommodate the winter/holiday season. I've also added a links section on the right column. Those are links to websites I've come across relating to anxiety and panic that offer some great advice. I will post new sites whenever I come across some that I like. Oh And I'm now on twitter, I've added a feed to the right. PS. If you look above I've also added some animated fish just for fun!

Here we go once again!

Hello all, I'm back and yes its been quite some time. I do apologize for the lack of updates! My last update I had just began a new job and came back from an amazing trip to Northern California. Since then I've been exploring the beautiful South West and having a great time doing so! My friends out here are pretty cool and we all enjoy the same sort of things. Not sure If I mentioned this but I picked up some after work activities, whether is just going for a walk/bike ride, working on my car, swimming, or simply hanging out with my friends. I find when I keep myself busy I think less about anxiety and more about living my life. I haven't had a really bad attack in quite a while (trying to stay strong), and I am glad. This morning was a little tough. I'm taking a small 4 day vacation to Southern California to enjoy the whether and attend a local car show (my car is still not fixed, more on that another time) with my friends. I've been excited for this all week b...
