One step forward two steps backward

I had a good day yesterday. I felt almost normal. Well, more normal than I've felt in many months. Today was a difficult story. Weird anxiety, scary symptoms, and feeling like my body was just off. It's almost like I'm being punished for my okay day yesterday. Gosh darn it, anxiety you suck.

Yeah, I know that feeling all too well. One day I vow to myself that from now on I’m going to reclaim my life and as soon as I think I can do this all the way through, here comes that awful reminder saying hey what exactly do you think your doing? Living life, without me. Oh no, not today your not. Ugh. At the end of the day, although it does seem impossible at times, I still try my best to think about what it is that I desire while making active efforts to achieve it.

Boy do i know that feeling.

Keep pushing through!!!

I believe you are coming through it..I feel you are overcoming it and it is losing it's hold on you. Keep up the fight and overcome the enemy...i believe there is hope for us and others like us. I came out of it before and i vow i will again. :-)

I too as others have commented, do the same thing. Lately the good is overcoming the bad though. Even on great days I'm thinking why can't it alwz be like this & I've flipped flopped on this for a bit now but I really am getting stronger & you will too! The battle may never completely end, or this is how I now see it, but.. we will keep the upper hand! It will pass.

Did anything happen that contributed to the feelings? Perhaps if you can reflect or think about It, something specific may be troubling you. Something to keep in mind is that our feelings don't have to control us. Give gratitude for the good days that you have and prayerfully you will experience more of them.
