Anxious Stories

  • I think Hecaté may have just saved my life today.
    I got a call from a Sergeant Jennings this morning about my prowler episode a while back. He said that he needed me to sign a statement and could he come by. I said that there was nothing I could swear to, but that I would talk with him. When the doorbell rang, Hecaté began acting weird and barking and clawing at the door. A v...

    I started binging.
    I'm so angry with myself.
    So... worried.
    I'm almost shakey, though i'm not sure why.
    I just kept telling myself "go eat, you can stop tomorrow"  stupid Claire...
    But it doesn't work like that! I just wish for a day where i will wake up and suddenly not have the urge to eat at all, but that day isn't going to come!
    I need to realise that.... but deep...

    Hi all, I havnt dont a journal lately, nothing much has happened here.
    Today I went to the hospital for a kidney scan,I had to drink lots of water an hour before I went and as you can expect I had to wait when I got there, I am sure they do this on purpose. I was getting desperate but then they shouted me in.It took about 20 minutes and I wont get the result for 5 - 10 days and it goes to my diabe...

  • I Know This Isn't Living But What Is It?

    Wednesday, September 10, 2008 | An Anxious story

     
    It's been 8 months, 6 days, 11 hours, and 6 minutes, give or take, since I lost him.  People, I guess, think I'm okay but if they could see inside of me they'd be surprised.  And maybe it wouldn't even matter to them.  They would have no way of comprehending what the tangled mess of my emotions could possibly feel like.  And if truth be told, I ...

    Another day, another weekend, another Sunday...another new week starting tomorrow, without Dean.  I would like to say I'm looking forward to the day that I can measure my days, weeks, time, my life in general without him being a part of how I think of just about everything, including what I do, what I don't do, what I won't do, what I can do, what I can't do.....

    I keep thinking it's getting better and I suppose it is in many ways but then I have a day or two when I can't seem to function, I can't seem to go, I'm stuck and I can't move and I feel so very empty inside and I wonder what now, why is this happening?  Why can't I get better, stay better and stop sliding backwards?  I don't know the answer and I don&#...
