I'm my own worst enemy!!! Excessive worry, coupled with anxiety!! Addicted to news and weather channels... Which my therapist says I'm not supposed to watch due to my PTSD!! I overthink everything. I pop awake in the middle of the night worrying about everything, every animal and everybody in the world!!! I worry about my kids and my grandchildren. I've been this way since I was a child. My mom used to sit on my bed and play the guitar softly so I could sleep. We are called Empaths. We feel too much. All of this exacerbates my upper back neck and shoulder pain. And when I cry which is quite often it makes it worse. Have any of you out there had your upper back spasms get worse when you cry? I take klonopin and muscle relaxers. They help me a lot.
