I have been on edge and second guessing my myself for several month. It's effecting my decision making and ability to feel assured and even vaguely at ease with self outside of work .my coping skills are failing me utterly. I need advice and suggestions.

Hi. What are your current coping skills (the ones you feel are no longer working)?

Avoidance mostly

in reply to pbocka

I've read that avoidance can work in the short run, but not in the long run. Pretty soon one gets lonely and craves interaction. There are lots of coping skills out there but, like everything else, these are very individual. Are you seeing a therapist who can help you with this?

Am considering that option and a possible evaluation as well. Should get a physical if possible to eliminate other issues I suppose

Are you suffering from anxiety too? Is that what's causing you to be on edge and second guess yourself?
