i woke up this morning with anxiety like always. suffering for years now i expect this when i wake up. i get so frustrated to think that this is how my life is, and i should be enjoying everything in front of me right now but i'm bombarded with intrusive thoughts and questions non stop in my head. i would just like to say to all anxiety sufferers we are not alone, and patience is our blessing. we need to not rush recovery and we need to find peace with our anxiety while it stays with us. as frustrating as it is, there is always a light at the end of a tunnel. ~never surrender, just breathe ~

" thank you for posting that it is exactly what i needed to hear.intrusive thoughts and the constant running of the mind and waking and the anxiety being there. man that describes exactly where im at. the mind issue is most frustrating . i keep wanting to control that and i cant. it is so weird how my reaction to all this is to get angry with myself that i cant control it. i keep telling myself positive things about myself instead.i am just so ready for this to cycle down. it is such a hard thing for me to comprehend that breathing is what i need to do. it is like my mind stands up and says what , that makes no sense you should fight this . but i cant. ive tried repeatedly and failed. again thanks your post has given me hope "

" You took the words right out of my mouth! It's to bad you can't take them out of my head!! I know where you're coming from and a lot of times it is hard to believe that someone else could feel the way that you do. As hard as it is, I think there are quite a few going through this too. Glad you posted and keep moving. (: "

" LOVE LOVE LOVE this post! You hit it on the dot like everyone else said. I need to work on doing what you said about coming to terms with the fact that I HAVE this anxiety disorder, instead of fighting it, not accepting it, & being so impatient with myself. "
