Anxiety Support Group
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.

The last week or so i have watched way to many halloween movies. The 13 days of halloween cable channels like to call it.
Having ocd, it has triggered me, iam now unsettled and feel like things are afoot.
But its funny, i had to watch anyways. I knew at some point they would bother me. But its halloween. Its sucha great season. I couldnt let my ocd get in the way.
I dont know about anyone else, but i tend to portray things into my own life..
for instance: if i watch a scary movie..i start having thoughts like ,that will happen to me, or i will do that to someone else....or if someone is going through something i think it will happen to me etc.
wes craven,m night shamylanananana..lol and stephen king movies have nothing in comparison to what my own thoughts can do to me.
I know with having ocd so long, and all the stages of it, i have made it through just fine. So maybe thats why its ok if things trigger me, cuz i know there is a end point to it, and i go back to normal.
The belief in knowing i will be ok no matter what is placed before me, has seen me through 25 years of ocd anxiety and depression. and if believing in myself and hoping has got me this far, no sence doubting it now.
EVERYBODY HAVE A SPOOKTACULAR HALLOWEEN.

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
