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. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...

Out of anxiety - need a help

Hey guys,


          My anxiety is increasing day by day. Don't know what to do. I will explain with a situation.


           My office is in Toronto. It’s around 5 years now. We have planned to renew our office and at the same time plan to buy new systems. We strongly believe that our employees are our strength and we always support them and make sure that we provide them the best facilities to charge them up. But thinking about these things increases my anxiety. 


         We think that it is good to sell our old systems to another firm and then buy the new ones. We searched a lot and came across computer liquidator. According to the advantages they have listed, we intend to have it done but not sure whether it is feasible at this stage. Has anyone used any of the computer liquidator services in Toronto? One of our co-workers were suggesting a computer equipment liquidator and we thought just having a go at it! If that is the case, can I have your suggestions put across? This will also help us to find the best in Toronto.


          Feel free to just push across your valid suggestions and notes regarding the renewal of the office too. But more than that how can I avoid my anxiety? Please recommend solutions.


Thanks much!

At present, I treat computer liquidators like I treated the old recycling centers way back in the 70's when the NIMBY crowd was sure there was an endless supply of landfills available in other people's back yards. I support them on principle far more than profit. Our current hunger for technology is creating techno-trash far faster than we are developing the recycling capacities. I am clueless on what's what in Canada, but here in the U.S., I am thrilled anytime I can give my out-dated gadgets to ANYBODY who will keep at least parts of them out of the landfills.

As for the escalating anxiety. . . Perhaps you can start with letting that have priority over the work stuff every now and again? At present I know more about your work than the strictly personal stuff that typically causes anxiety.

Take the hard drives from each machine before you liquidate. That will keep your technical assets safe. Then you can send the drives to a E-Waste or Shred-It company to properly dispose of them.

On a side note about the anxiety - this is a big decision. Recognize that it is OK to feel nervous, but trust that you are making the right decision.

Ruffin, for me, I do worst in the pre-decision stage. All the which way to go things seem to raise the anxiety, then when a decision is made, the anxiety goes down. Use the same tools you have used in the past. Hugs.
