Ruins your day..

[Anxiety_prisoner]

Don't you hate it when you have a nice day planned out ahead of you and you should feel happy and excited and overthinking about how great it's going to be but you can't. You just think about anxiety, you think is it going to happen today? It's stuck in your head and rather think happy about your nice day planner, all you can think about it trying not to get panic attacks. I hate this sort of thing.. Anxiety can ruin anything by just having a slight thought about it. You're not alone anyone on her. Go ahead and message me, active 24/7 😊

That's exactly how I feel. It sucks. Like I know I should be excited about stuff but I think what if I have a panic attack. Like this afternoon I was thinking wow I feel really good and then all of a sudden I was like but what if somethings not right and my body is not letting me know and ya well bring on the panic attack. I know it sounds stupid but ya

Yeah exactly. This anxiety is strange, you question yourself a lot about the weirdest things, like uhm how do we even work and then you think what if I didn't work and your body starts to feel different and then you panic over a thought and it gets worse and worse..

I wish I knew how to switch my mind off to stop thinking something bad is going to happen

Ooh yes it's so annoying I have to say I am better now as I do look forward to things more which just wasn't a possibility before When I got an invite somewhere I'd get this awful dread in the pit oif my stomach and the what ifs Its just so so rotten

I think I've got better because I've realised none of the what ifs have ever actually happened but I'd so love to be able to go out anywhere without any negative thoughts and think Oh fantastic I'll really look forward to that !! If someone gave me the choice between winning the lottery and being free of anxiety I know what I'd choose x

Yes! I have been feeling like this since I got my anxiety back (going on 5 months now, had been anxiety free for 8 years). I have my brother's wedding coming up next month and I can't stop worrying about not feeling well that day.. about having anxiety, feeling light headed, nauseous and having stomach problems. I'm in the wedding so I know it's going to be a long day and maybe that's what is adding on to my fears. I know this is going to be such a happy day.. why am I dreading it so much. How do I make the negative thoughts stop?
