Frustrated
Anxiety is a Fire Beast. It weaves webs of lies and deceit. Tearing you down to the point that you just all want it to be painless.
Do a self assessment:
Why am I anxious?
What is causing my stress?
Do have control of these things?
Are these things real or something I have conjured up on my own?
My beast creates problems that aren't there and my anxiety takes off like a Tempest ready to sink a ship. I talk to my significant other and find out that I've been stressing myself or punishing myself for things that are not problems.
Life is painful and it's all about perception. What you may perceive as traumatic may not be to someone. My boyfriend went to an officer PTSD training class that was aimed at helping police officers to better deal with PTSD suffers. The first thing he said was that PTSD is life. Anything can happen and cause flashbacks and no one can take that away from anyone. Everyone had flashbacks and anxiety attacks. What's important is finding the trigger and addressing it.
I will be the first to say I struggle every day with this thing called "Life".
Take a deep breath, several, and find that "creature comfort" that helps you to feel better. For me, music helps me through a lot of my anxiety moments.
Remember you are not alone and you can do this!
