Sad...nothing seems to be going my way.

[Anxiously1]

Hello haven't been on here in a while. I'm getting back to that dark sad place where I don't want to be bothered and I don't really talk to anyone. I stay in the house constantly. And I having these moments where I sneak away from people and go cry my eyes out. I really wish I had someone to talk to just to tell me that everything is gonna be ok.

Everything will be okay! Distancing yourself from people is not the way to go. Having support is very important. As well as talking about how you are feeling. Sometimes having positive thoughts can make a huge difference in how you feel. If you think negatively all the time more often than not you're going to feel like crap. You need to tell yourself that something good is going to happen today. It will also do your nerves good to go for walks and get fresh air. It always helps with my anxiety. You just have to push yourself to get our there and keep trying.

Exercise has helped me a lot in the past but now that's its cold outside I don't really leave the house and it's really starting to affect me.

I'm not a fan of the cold either but I still bundle myself up and go for my walks. You can also try walking around your home or if you have a mall indoors you can walk there.

Thank you I will try that. Hopefully I can start tomorrow if I feel any better. Thank you so much for talking to me!

No problem. It's always nice to have someone to talk to who understands. No one in my family has ever dealt with anxiety so they don't really understand what I'm feeling. But I have always been a sensitive person and a worrier which is the perfect pairing for someone to develop an anxiety disorder. It's all about overly sensitized nerves. You have to give your body and mind a break so they can heal. Thinking a million different thoughts everyday will just drain you more. You have to find things to keep you busy and productive. Sitting around makes the anxiety worse. If you need to cry, then cry. Don't hold things in.
