Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another.

Since I am home all day long my anxiety is there everyday. It begins with me getting alot of things done and functioning pretty good. I try to stay busy. Then my anxiety starts to build and I begin tp feel uncomfortable not being able to pinpoint any thing specific that is bothering me. Then O.C.D. starts to knock on my door with past thoughts like times when I was driving and I thought I hit someone and drove away but I went back to check and everything was okay. My brain is like a DVD player and it is spinning around and I do not know which DVD driving Hit and Run O.C.D. thought might pop in. I know these are just O.C.D. thoughts and my therapist told me to visualize me giving the person that I thought I hit candy. T he duration of the thought has lessened alot. I am trying not to get all worked up and just saying that it is anxiety and I can handle it. Can anyone relate with having past thoughts that make you anxious and their life is like this cycle. I am also on several meds prescribe by a psych doctor.

Its pretty amazing that the mind if it cannot figure out what is causing the anxiety will make up a pretty wild story to try and scare you with it.
I think I would try changing the plot too.
I feel like I am in a vicious cycle and can't get out. it really sucks and I try real hard everyday to fight it. That makes me anxious too.
I wish you peace and comfort.
