@raging vortex thanks for asking! I'm not sure what I was anxious about really. Maybe my upcoming appointment on Monday. But I feel better about it now. I rescheduled another appointment I had during the week, so that made my week feel less overwhelming.

Sorry you're in pain. Do you practice mindfulness? Sometimes that can help with pain. I hope your day goes well!

Thank you so much!

I'm feeling calm this morning. I am listening to ocean waves, which is really helping me.

My anxiety is kinda sucky today.

convalescence · May 17, 2020 at 08:13 PM

My anxiety / paranoia / whatever has been a lot better lately. Very overwhelming emotions today, though. We had friends over yesterday and although we broke social distancing I definitely realized how much I missed my people. Grieving + quarantine are not a good mix.

I'm a little anxious this morning. I have a doctor's appointment today. I don't really want to go. I wish I could just phone in for the appointment but they want blood work. I'm really getting annoyed with my doctor. I'm rebelling by not fasting. She'll just have to deal with it. I don't care.

You are lucky. I ate one starburst and accidentally told my doctor and she flipped out and started yelling at me about how she couldn’t do the blood work. For one starburst? Really? I’m glad I don’t see that doctor anymore.

I’ve been waking up every. single. hour.

May 20, 2020 at 06:48 AM

yesterday I had another panic attack. it was over a phone conversation I need to have on friday (I hate phone conversations)

today, as well as being anxious about that, I am anxious about a couple of my friends going for their coronavirus tests (I really hope it goes well for them, I will speak to them later and see)

anxiety all round today I'd say

Mountaindewed · May 20, 2020 at 12:41 PM

My anxiety is pretty sucky today. It’s still manageable though. I’ve still only taken my visteral today. I haven’t taken any Xanax. It’s not PMS anxiety. I don’t feel like I’m going to lose control. Although I haven’t felt like I was going to lose total control in years.

puzzclar · May 20, 2020 at 04:51 PM

Today sucks. Meds for anxiety are doing nothing!!! Why do I keep taking them? I need to do the work to get my life back. And yet I can't. I'm scared.

Deilla · May 21, 2020 at 02:12 PM

I started having a panic attack and thinking seriously about buying a new e-Cig. Then I thought I really need some Nicorette gum. That helped calm me.

88Butterfly88 · May 21, 2020 at 09:11 PM

My anxiety was moderate today.

May 22, 2020 at 03:58 AM

my anxiety was very bad yesterday- including getting too hot because I was getting too anxious over things.

still a little anxious today too over stuff (and in pain)

some good news is that those virus tests my friends went for were negative, they don't have it

Deilla · May 22, 2020 at 04:24 AM

I'm fairly calm this morning. I've been doing retail therapy.

Mountaindewed · May 22, 2020 at 05:58 AM

My anxiety was sucky but a Mountain Dew calmed my nerves. Which seemed like the opposite so I wonder if I was having caffeine withdrawals. I hadn’t had any caffeine in over 2 days.

missbelle · May 22, 2020 at 11:07 AM

Lots of anxiety over having to go to dentist. I am terrified

Mountaindewed · May 23, 2020 at 10:11 AM

I’m pretty sure what I had yesterday was just really bad allergies and bad anxiety as a result of the allergies. I feel fine today.

convalescence · May 24, 2020 at 12:32 AM

Woke up with anxiety in the middle of the night again. Shocking. Not complaining really since I had a few good week or two of sleeping relatively well with no major inconveniences. I’ll try to practice some mindfulness to rock myself back to sleep.
