pushing through…barely

mornings are always the hardest. I am back at work today. I’m hoping it helps. But I had a very hard time getting up and out of my bed. My stomach is upset, but I’m assuming it anxiety. I am so fearful that the virus I had is now a stomach virus but I know that is probably not the case…right? This sounds terrible but I woke up twice in the middle of the night hungry so I ate crackers. To me that means I’m not sick and it’s anxiety. But I don’t know. I just want to feel better.

I’m hoping that work will be a good distraction. I’m excited for tonight when I can just get cozy in my bed and rest, but that seems so far away and hard to reach. I have therapy tonight which I think will be very helpful.

I'm glad you were able to get up and go to work. That is a huge accomplishment. I have morning anxiety every single day and there is no way I could get up and go to a job which is while I'm on disability. You should pat yourself on the back. I hope you have a good day at work and then tonight you can relax and get comfy in your bed. I sure wish someone had a fix for morning anxiety. I dread mornings. Every. Single. Day.

I am so sorry to hear that. I’m thinking of you. Unfortunately my morning anxiety hasn’t worn off yet. I’m struggling so much

Are you like me? My anxiety gets less as the day wears on and by about 5pm I feel normal and relaxed. It's like my body is on a cycle. It sucks.

Hi Daisy I just wanted to see if you saw this How to Free Yourself from the Fear of Vomit and Reclaim Your Life healthunlocked.com/anxiety-... there is a $10 fee, I don't know if that is a problem for you. I just thought of you when I saw it and wanted to share in case you missed it.

I truly understand what you are going through. I have stomach issues, headaches, and chest pains, at various times of the day, mainly at bedtime and morning. I have been to the doctor and ruled out heart problems. I have also had colonoscopy, endoscopy, and a Brain MRI. All were ok. So, I assume it is my anxiety. They did find three small hernias that they say are not causing any issues and two aneurysms in my spleen that they have been monitoring and say that they are not causing any issues either. I have trouble relaxing and falling asleep, so I get where you are coming from. I am terrified of getting the stomach flu due to all of my stomach issues. It seems to take me forever to get over something when I do become ill. I became so fed up and finally handed it over to God and asked him to deliver me from my illnesses, both mental and physical, and am doing better.
