One of the things I DID NOT DO when I lived in my native country of Puerto Rico, was listen to news... I wanted to wake up with soft music or even in total silence and that gave me a sense of peace. I sat at the front balcony sipping my hot coffee and looking at the ocean. Then I headed to the office to work listening to my favorite music.I have never again felt that awesome feeling of relaxation since I moved back to the US. When I was transferred from the company I worked for to work in Jacksonville, I was reluctant to accept it. Even though my 2 sons and 4 grandkids live in Jacksonville and my two daughters and 5 grandkids in Tampa, I still did not want to leave my peaceful island. But they convinced me and it was a better salary. At the time I was taking a low dose of medication for my panic attacks and even when I still had them they were mild and I was able to control them much better. I moved to US and moved in with my son until I found my place... I love them to death but the TV on with Cartoons and another TV with news was like waking up in HELL. Oh how I missed my tranquility and my peaceful morning breaks. After several months and while looking for house to live, the company decided to let go of those close to the retiring age.... voila!!! Thank goodness that I had savings...and health insurance for a whole year. I decided to go back home and then I met my life partner, so we moved in together, shared our expenses and everything was good. I even got off my meds and had NO ANXIETY for 2 years. But still he owns a business and works from home so I hear POLITICAL NEWS, STOCK NEWS, FOX NEWS AND ALL OTHER NEWS all day long. You have no idea what the media can do for us suffering of anxiety. It is the most powerful trigger to fear, confusion, anger and PANIC>>>>
He now understands that we need to unwind first with our coffee and conversations and at least there is some peace there.... but I love him because he is awesome to me.
Thanks for reading... Take care. M
I'm happy for you xx
