Anxiety.. my own downfall

It’s been a long while since I posted. I lost my Dad 6 years ago and so much changed since then but the one consistent factor.. my anxiety. I’ve had it under control but now it’s threatening to boil over. In my head I’m creating scenarios that I’m sure don’t exist. I question every little thing and over analyse. I’ve all but stopped socialising with anyone but work colleagues and that’s only because I have to when I’m there. There has been things that have brought me to this point.. mostly partners that in one way or another have made me doubt every word that they utter and now I have a hard time believing things people say. I literally am destroying my own happiness because of anxiety.

Hello RachieW Don't let horrid rotten anxiety ruin your life

It's a New Year you say you had it under control before so you can and will do it again

My first advice is keep a diary write everything you feel down every day

Look at You Tube for Belly Breathing

It's helped me so must on the worst of days

Exercise - it gets rid of adrenaline that is the cause of anxiety I don't mean you have to join a gym look on you tube for ones you can do at home when you want to

Lie down at least twice a day and listen to a relaxation video Micheal Sealey ones are lovely

Get out in nature just a little walk makes so much difference

Think of you now not people that have hurt you they are in the past

Be kind to yourself

You can and will do it if you realise you are precious and just as important as any other person

I really really hope that in a tiny way something may have helped you

Take care and wishing you all the very very best

Keep posting you are not alone

Not what you're looking for?
