Take a deep breath and pause for a moment.

Changing levels of anxiety is normal, so is the 'blah' feeling after the release of the anxiety leaves the body.

Feelings are feelings, and we feel them as they happen.

Here's to finding balance and calm.

Everybody has “ blah” days, no one ever feels 100 percent every day.

in my own daily inventory, feeling blah is a sign of progress during a period of exceptionally high anxiety. when my anxiety is running the show, i'm fine. it's the rest of the world that needs fixing and i reserve the right to stick screwdrivers in the ears of anybody who isn't marching to my drummer. just showing my love by trying to tighten those loose screws, my love. mama knows best. . . trust me. i've over-thought all the possibilities.

in my own, strictly personal case, "not quite right" is an improvement on the theme.

continued support while you sort your own case, marian.

I get like this a lot . But mine is usually anxiety causing my depression to kick in. I hope you find relief soon! And hope the ultra sound /mammogram goes well!

It’s more like I am not feeling well but nothing specific. As I mentioned earlier, hearing about some serious illnesses of people we know may have brought on this health anxiety, which is actually something I really never dealt with. Oh great something else to deal with. But anyway yes still feeling this way and have been for the past few days.

Marian,

I often get that “not quote right” feeling. It is not quite anxiety but is definitely not to the extent of feeling “normal.” But can equate it to just feeling in a cloud. I feel that way today…just had a long and stressful past three days. You can look at it as being thankful it is not full-blown panic, right?

Maybe that’s the feeling I’m a cloud. And yes glad not full blown anxiety or panic.
But I sit down on a couch thinking I’d feel better cause it would be resting but it doesn’t help. I walk and it’s cold and brisk here today so I kind of feel okay. But bizarre that when I sit down I feel almost uncomfortable.

Sometimes I feel uncomfortable in my own skin, like I just feel weird even though it's not a full on anxiety attack on panic. Even though I don't understand it, I think I get what you're talking about. I feel really vulnerable like I can't find somewhere I can feel relaxed.

I started noticing a few years ago that things that would normally make me feel depressed, even seasonal affective disorder, started coming across as anxiety instead. Do you think your grief could be manifesting in that feeling?

Also, since I've had anxiety and panic disorder since I was about 4 years old and depression since I was 12, it's kind of my "normal", so a lot of times I don't notice a lot of stuff that other people do.

Yes I feel uncomfortable that is definitely how I’d describe it. Tired but if I sit down to try to rest I’m not comfortable. Very bizarre. It’s been coming on for the last few days. Just feel weird

So sorry you are feeling "blah". I deal with it quite often these days and it is not a great state of mind. I sure you can figure out what to do about it.

Yea Carlyj. It’s weird because it’s not high anxiety it’s just a feeling maybe of emptiness? I dont know. I feel in a state of like nothingness. I can’t explain it. I wake up with anxiety. But then I’m just like “blah” is the word.
