Today is one of those days.

Since I joined this community, I've been calm and I was beginning to see the good in everything. Yesterday was the best day, nothing happened and my head was clear but today? Today is just pissing me off, bringing back negativities and worries. I don't even know why I'm feeling this way but I'm so mad even though I woke up happy and energetic. I'm tired, I'm tired, it hurts everywhere but my head and chest suffers the most. Help me. Please.

Do you have anxiety or depression? I'm New here but I'm here if you want to talk.

You are a beautiful person, hold on to those good emotions. When this mood gets to me, I try to smile. No matter what. Like I am showing to my head, that "no, your tactic is not working, I am stronger than you think".

Hold on tight! We are all here for you!!!!

Thanks, ma'am.

You are a special spirit. We can see that already. There is sometimes no explanation for emotions. They come and go. We get hurt less if we don't hang onto them. Being depressed or anxious is exhausting. Make space for peace and rest where you can. You deserve that. Members here care a lot and will listen. You can find what you need within yourself.

Sounds like me every time I wake up, and that's at least 3 times during the night and more than that while sleeping on the couch during the day.

Lately I wake up and start to become aware of where I am and the time, then start yelling and screaming and yelling "help me, some body help me>"

As we know when our brain is in focus, I'm the only one who can help me. So I get up and walk around the house with the walker for a few minutes. Later I can say how horrible it is to wake up. It's the worst of the attack, then diminishes even for a bit.

I'm grateful for the help to slow down the breathing and do the tapping.
