Need a pick me up.

5 Replies

Well my Sunday didn't really get much better. I forced a roast dinner down me sat and watched a bit of TV. Did have some nice comments on here which cheered me up a bit.

I decided to sit down and watch a film with the family which for the first hour or so was a nice distraction. Then suddenly started to feel a bit hot and claustrophobic so I decided to lie on the floor on my own. Then my emotions started to get the better of me and my chest tighten up. It took all my strength not to break down in front of my family. I'm now in bed trying not to do just that. What's making this so hard and strange to deal with is I'm not a cryer and feeling that close to doing so just freaks me out a bit.

I'm now trying my best to relax and calm myself down. Writing this has helped a little.

I hope everyone's Sunday has been a little more cheerful than mine.

Its ok to cry hun , it can even be a sign of you starting to deal with your anxiety , you have a good cry if you need one , we all do

Don't give yourself a hard time , you are doing really well , there is no quick fix with this , its little steps & you are taking them

Hope tomorrow is a better day

Love

Hey again part of me knows it alright to cry, but it's something that's very alien to me. I'm feel a bit better since I got into bed. Just hope I sleep better tonight.

As always thank you. Hope you have a good Monday.

Hi will, isn't it great to bounce your feelings around the site? Take a few deep breaths and that will help you to relax. Have a think about how you being relaxed will help your family and everyone around you, esp yourself.....and that will help you too. My Sunday has been so busy....started off bad and got a little better. Anxious as anything as I woke up. Now tired and looking forward to bed. Hope you are feeling better soon.

Hi will, sorry you are not having a good day and nothing wrong with having a cry its a way of releasing tension and anxiety. When you bottle up emotions it can make you feel worse.

Everything takes time and sometimes we are not patient enough.

I hope and pray you have a better day tomorrow.

God Bless
