Left over anxiety

[Eagle12]

I am having anxiety because I had anxiety. Its like trying to stop a moving train. Something someone said caused me to have anxiety last night. What I was worried about didn't happen but because I had so much anxiety and it was so uncomfortable I am scared the anxiety will come back. That fear is giving me anxiety. I know I will be ok and this will end but it is such an uncomfortable feeling.

I feel like I have been scared all my life. I am 50 years old. I have had anxiety sense I was in kindergarten. My anxieties come in the form of phobias. A fear of something will go away and another will appear in its place. I get so tired. I am better equipped to deal with it then in the past. I am thankful for that. It still can be so draining .

I have the same feelings and I know how hard it can be. I am here if you ever need someone to talk you through your anxiety. Stay strong!

Yes, it is so reflexive. It becomes a fear for the fear..
