Signed of again with anxiety

[Batman79]

I have been signed work again for 4 weeks with anxiety. Just feel so out of control with every thing at the moment my mind is racing away with situations that may never happen. And I just don't know how to calm down if any body has words of advise please help.

What do you have going on? What do you do for work? How long have you been dealing with anxiety?

Hello Dallin 88

I work in a school just really not enjoying life at the moment. Lost my spark a couple of days ago.

You have been 'signed work' for anxiety????... could you explain a little more maybe?

Hi BettyA

Sorry I just spotted I mad a mistake. It should read I have been signed off work by the doctor for 4 weeks. Sorry just not thinking straight at the moment.

When i was off work with anxiety the best advice i was given was to write everything down that was bothering me and to take one day at a time. I'm back at work now but still suffer with anxiety, i have endless lists and take one day at a time. It scares me too much to think too far into the future!

Thanks Jules

I have been told by a few people about writing things down I went to see a counciler about my anxiety and because I explained it using the example I feel like a caged lion. He took it that I thought I was a lion and having a psychosis and sent me to see a psychiatric nurse who I had to explane to how I felt. So I guess it would be better that I write things down because of I say them to people they think I'm having a bad brake down. Thanks for your advice.

Thanks
