anxiety returns

[Trainchaser]

Last month I had a heavy stressor taken away and since then many days were without anxiety and other days with minimal anxiety. However the last two days my anxiety was like it was before. 9 on a scale of 1 to 10. Hope it goes away as I have really enjoyed the last month.

Trainchaser, having Anxiety leave us for a while is a feeling many of us strive for.

Unfortunately, it may not last long unless we get a handle on the stresses of life.

There will always be an event, a thought, a smell, a sound that may bring you back

to the moment of stress and fear. It's not about reaching for a pill as much as it is

about having found other tools/methods that work to relieve your stress. xx

I know it can feel somewhat defeating but the best thing to do is look at it as a setback which is good, it means you are making progress on your recovery. The DARE book and youtube videos have good info on setbacks.
