Today was not really that bad, but I’m still having catastrophic thoughts, and they are pretty irrational but that doesn’t take the fear away and that feeling of emptiness in my chest.

How are you doing you guys, any milestones you want to share today ? Maybe that could bring some positivity to the group

It's great that today was better, but I understand how draining it can be to have catastrophic thoughts. I am sorry to hear that. What a good idea to ask others about their successes. Hearing good stuff can be uplifting. I have felt a lot better in the past few days. I am "in my mind" a lot less. I have been able to do some relaxation exercises and then reframe things so that I feel less emotional about them. (Quick Reframing tool: reframe.thnk.org/tool/step/1/) BTW: I really like the way that Uncommon Knowledge website defines excessive worrying as a "misuse of the imagination." (unk.com/blog/4-ways-to-help.... That helps me feel like it is something I can learn to stop misusing. :)
