Just keep swimming

Ugh anxiety will not win today. I’m tired of being a hermit crab! I wanna go out and do stuff. Even if it’s sitting outside in the sun. Today I woke up knowing how anxiety has made me feel for the past few weeks and forced myself outside for a few minutes. Been up moving around a bit.. but taking it slow. I’ve had some funny feelings pop up but I keep telling myself it’s okay I’ve felt this before I’m ok. Then fear tries to step in but I say no. I will not feel like this today. So far I’ve had chest tightness. derealization, and scary thoughts.

Hey anon, was looking for you :)

Good job today. If you have to say "No" out loud. Sometimes

hearing yourself get angry at Anxiety can make this entity run

scared. Don't forget, it's not use to us accepting it as not harmful.

It needs a rude awakening, that we are in charge of our lives and will

not allow intrusive thoughts to make us think differently.

New day in going forward..

You get to choose :) or :(

You chose the right one.

Happy Sunday!

I hope your Sunday is going well. 🙂 Today I have done more than I have in weeks. I feel good today and it’s almost over. I made it! Still have some chest tightness off and on but I’m happy. xx

Haha! Good to hear. This morning is trying. I have a bit of tachycardia and my arms are tingly. I’m trying to stay calm best I can.

You are doing amazing! One thing at a time. You’ve been through this before and you can get through it again and come out so much stronger.
