I feel like I’m worrying but not sure what about? And feel a little lost with a little butterflies in my stomach. Could anyone help with this like is it bad or like is it a come n go thing

Try and pin point what are getting upset about there is definitely something there that causes that. Try and get it tou will feel so much better. If not this will pass at sunlight. Hang in there

For me it’s a come and go kind of thing. I was feeling this yesterday. Very low but unsure how to explain why. I often make myself a cup of tea. It tastes yummy and warms me up inside. Do you think you could be worrying about something that has happened or something that is going to happen?

I’m always been like always a over thinker like always thinking the worst of a good situation like the other night my mum got in a taxi to go to aget party I was thinking the worst like what if the driver takes her and does something bad, but at the minute it’s the butterflies in stomach that’s bothering me cause obviously butterflies is what u get your nervous but me being me I’m over thinking it and automatically start worrying etc which I’m guessing makes it worse.

I hear ya! I have a hard time with that too. I’m always afraid my mom will get into an accident on her way to work. Whenever I have these kind of thoughts I really try and distract myself. Whether it’s putting on music to drown out the thoughts or grabbing a book to make new thoughts. Is there anything that helps you when you feel like this?

Hi Ozzy. I get like this when I have anxiety. The good news is, it's your brain lying to you, so it's not going to take you or your mum down.

What I try to do is acknowledge it (I call it what it is...anxiety. I'm basically Calling IT Out!)

OWN it...this is my mind making up inventive stories and trying to scare me.

DEAL with it. I try to make myself walk my way through it. It can't physically stop me, so "F OFF, Anxiety! Not THIS time you don't!"

Then you come out the other side, breathe deep, thank your higher power for helping you & start thinking about things you're grateful for. I'm glad you have your mum. Seems like you are really close. My mom & me were super close, but alcoholism took her away suddenly many years ago. Yet I still have so much to give thanks for & I talk to Mom all the time! I know she's smiling on me.

Welcome to the Family, Ozzy!
