I have been anxious about so many things especially my relationship and the future. I found a therapist that can see me in Tuesday hope with this group and therapy and working on myself I will be able to feel better. Because right now the way I feel it is like I just want to give up on everything just crawl in a hole and not let anyone in

Therapy helped me quite a bit. I came back with PTSD and severe depression. Therapy helped me to deal with it and how to start to live again. Glad you got someone.

That's great that you have a therapy appointment coming up real soon.

Take some time for yourself right now. Maybe take this weekend to just rest, do things for yourself, regroup.

Don't worry about the other things... the relationship, your future... all that can wait for awhile. You need to work on YOU first.

Quick fixes often end up causing more problems in the long run, but I opine that you are on to a solid, sustainable plan. Be gentle with yourself and patient with the process.

Gentle support while you work it through.

Thank up everyone. I hope i get some relief. I am still oberthinking and racing negative thoughts but I am trying to calm myself but it is hard. My back and shoulders feel stressed and I cannot eat and if I do bathroom. I feel my nerves on end all the time.

There is journey ahead sometimes not a fun one however when you start to feel better the whole journey was worthwhile. Live each day don't think about the future till you're ready to that helped me.

"Relationship Obsessive Compulsive Disorder?"

I got that from typing 'ROCD" into my search engine. I had never heard it before, but I can easily buy the dx for half the population of FB and most of prime time TV.

Am I on the right track?

    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!

    Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...
