Mornings are rough

I despise getting out of bed, yet that is not where I want to be. It's a double edged sword. One that guts me each and every day. I get up put on the mask and survive the day the best I can. I hope everyone out there finds something worth surviving for today.

When I wake up I start thinking it’s going to be another day of anxiety etc to get through. My feet start sweating. I hate it. It feels gross and signals my mind that the anxiety is still here. So I feel your pain. Wish I was stronger and able to let this go. Do you feel the same?

I do, its never ending dread. Sleep is an escape if I can ever get any. And some days mainly weekends I get too much because it pains me to do anything other than stay in bed. You are not alone. I drum up all the things that could go wrong in my day and the scenarios that may pan out, when in reality none of that happens and I mentally exhaust myself.

That about not liking to get out of bed: me too. My dog makes me get out of bed to take him out. He is a big dog and pees like a race hound. I say thank you Barker for getting me out of bed every morning.

I have a Rottweiler and a Chihuahua dogs are wonderful truly, animals in general are helpful to healing in ways they don't even understand. I have a few to thank myself. Even on my worst days. Thank you for reminding me. 😊
