General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another.

feeling sad

I am feeling sad, I feel like I am living the consequences of poor decisions and I am sad because of that. I know I can change many things if I set my mind to it but I don't have the energy to do it. I am not depressed but I suffer from anxiety, and I don't want to go back on my meds. I have all the basics I need, if I work hard I can achieve great things (and I am thankful for how lucky I am) but it isn't like that,it seems like I don't care enough to make the effort to be better. I want to find a good job, lose some weight and study again. I have thought, well if at least I start with one of these things it will inspire me to do the others, but it hasn't work like that. I don't like the City where I live right now and I have chosen this place, so it's my fault, but now I feel trapped. 


I feel different from most people, why I cannot set some goals and achieve them???   I prefer to spend my days in my bedroom studying than going out for coffee or hanging out with people.

The first step: you write it out. The first step: you take a walk outside. The first step: get hydrated. Break down your plan of action to the basic in order to make the step the first step until you are comfortable with taking more than a first step. Best wishes!

Hi there, Don't be too hard on yourself and you don't have to compare yourself to others. Being able to fight anxiety is a very big accomplishment, start some baby steps. Try to think what your good in doing, like your hobbies. Keep a journal. Ask for what you want and needed. And don't forget to put yourself first. Smile ;)

    I did the dumbest thing today.  I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds.  I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym.  What a dummy!

    Reality Check

    Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job.  It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it.  Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.  There was a full length mirror in the changing room.  I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like.  It was a reality check.
