I was struggling. Racing intrusive anxious thoughts. Struggling with taking care of myself, tried to clean, did it but couldn't go shopping food and meds and it's stressing me out. Went to the gym, went to dance class but still was stressing out, thinking 715437 thoughts,struggling to adult. I was feeling unwell and desided to leave. Then i saw sis called. Mom wanted her to tell me we re going to Grandma's. Out of the blues. Didn't even tell me herself. I have a training for my job at Friday and group therapy at saturday. I told mom she's telling me at the Last minute and i'm busy. Mom said okay. But i feel guilty. If i don't go, probably they will plan other going. And i will see sis and have food for a couple of days. On the other hand maybe i shouldn't feel guilty and not go there as it's bad for my mental health. And worried of viruses, since mom and sis can have something as illness. I was so anxious that i thought it's not normal, i'm dizzy and feverish, so i desided to buy a covid test and If it's positive i won't go anywhere and see where my anxiety comes from. Fortunatelly it's negative but now i gotta deside what to do and i'm already stressed as hell. My brain is frying. I can miss hte training i don't have a contract yet so nobody cares If i'm there. I can miss group therapy, last time nobody came, but i was really looking forward it. I feel like i'm going to start crying from anxiety, my brain is spasming 😭😖

Thanks. So part of it is letting go of home and learning to deal with people and on our own, right?

I don’t suffer from anxiety in general, but for me and anyone in my family, any unplanned meeting, even if it’s family, can be stressful. My feeling about things is ‘when in doubt leave it out’. There will be other times for which you can plan and prepare for well in advance. Sometimes casual meetings that just happen by themselves can be preferable. Don’t feel guilty, lots of people get worried when anticipating something ‘arranged’.
