Dreadful Anxiety

[Icanmakeit]

7 o clock am and already full of anxiety. Last 5 months have been hard. Some good days but living alone leaves you too much time to dwell on everything. Just retired so no real hobbies. I just want to feel better. I will feel better. It is a struggle but I must keep pushing. Counseling twice a week has helped. I just found this sight so hopefully I can communicate with others feeling the same way and take away the loneliness of anxiety. I started with fear of covid. Now just fear a lot but keep pushing. You have to move.

Thank you. I am going to keep pushing. I will not let anxiety win.

Mornings are also my worst time. I try to keep moving. Run out of things to do by 10. It is a struggle but we can make it. Thanks Luna_Child

It just goes to show that there is someone in same position as you not far away. I live alone and when I wake up every morning I always have a sick feeling inside. My mind never stops. Constant worry I work part time but get anxious for I do anything. Trying to live one day at a time but you will get there it’s not easy good luck with your counseling

An older gal here. It’s awful at this time of life to get hit with this. Been about 5 months for me too. Therapy, lots of support and some meds that just don’t help. I must be the only person that Ativan doesn’t work for! The COVID thing is part of it, grown sons out of the house. But a lot is the crap from decades ago coming to get me. Any of this sound familiar to you?

I think covid has forced us all to do a lot of thinking. Which leads to anxiety. Always worried but covid seemed to intensify my anxiety sky high. I wish I had a turn off button EVERYTIME It pops into my head. I am older alone with no kids. But we can all make it. Takes a lot of work but what else do we have to do right now😷😀
