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

Nervous energy

Hi everyone,


it feels like I bring a lot of implacable nervous energy to most of my interactions with people. I want to help them feel comfortable, and wish to be relaxed myself, but it feels like I end up doing the opposite. This is a problem with everyone, even in my closest relationships (although much less there). When this happens, I usually feel tension and excessive energy around my cheeks and eyes, and imagine that I have a really intense facial expression. 


i'm not sure why I get anxious - there doesn't seem to be a good reason for it most of the time. I am an introvert, but like being around people. It would be anazing to overcome this anxiety/awkwardness to be able to connect more easily with people I meet. 


thank you for reading <3

gentle empathy, gl. "intense" is the descriptive i hear most often in regards to my own social interactions and i can't argue the descriptive. i am, indeed, an intense person. i is what i is and i ain't what i ain't.

i wish i had an easy answer for both of us.

for now, i'm making do with finding benign ways to channel my intensity while maintaining safe social distances from the weak and vulnerable.

I consider myself passionate and can move with such intensity to cause chaos (misalignment) around those who are not aligned with my energetic higher power frequency. Of course, knowing thyself is the best way to channel any unwanted response from the self. If you can find my words to be of use to your senses, I do hope so, because it's okay to be your own kind of awkward self to the masses. Peace and Love, from me, Confessions of a Queen

P.S. The best way to help yourself and others is always to just simply be the real "YOU"

Maybe you are excited to be around folks?
I wouldn't compare how you are to how you think others are..
I don't have the answers but I'm sending good wishes
and peace that you find some ways to socialize in a way you feel good about.

'it feels like I bring a lot of implacable nervous energy to most of my interactions with people.'

Never take the interactions with people as your own personal problem, there is a reason for your tone, such influence... reading your words you make intelligent sense.

I've felt tingling sensations and changes in the energy field... but as previously mentioned by a dailystrength mate, we all wish to come up with better ways of connecting all around.

I would avoid a self-diagnosis based on a read/reading finding online... just saying. If anything, we all can feel a bit inadequate when we are fortunate to go above and beyond our own comfort zone. Stay lit with loving light... <3

    I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying.  I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there.  I think that I will start writing in it again.  It's so therapeutic.
