Time to re-gain control.

[Meeasy]

A couple of years ago I was having panic attacks. I managed to get ahead of my anxiety med free with some pro active behavior changes. By simply doing moderate light excercise and reducing or eliminating caffeine, sugar and alcohol I saw big improvements. I also reduced my screen time on social media and developed a regular practice of mindful meditation and introspection.

I was doing great but since the holidays, I've gradually restarted a coffee habit that's now back to twice daily. I've also been enjoying a couple of beers on the weekends. My diet is nothing to brag about either. I'm not posting on social media but find myself drawn into politics and news feeds. Although I still meditated regularly I've noticed my fiocus and attention are lacking. This week I feeling that tightness in my chest again. Just yesterday I had an internalized rage fit at work which led to insomnia last night. Bottom line is that I need to tighten up the ship. Being honest here is a first step. ✌️😎

I gave up ALL caffeine seven years ago and haven’t had the tiniest sip since. It helped with my attacks. I don’t have them anymore, but I do have anxiety still.
