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...
the anxiety is building relentlessly.
I hate being in my house and my job is 100% remote.
I have no income so I have to work. Have no other option to not work from here.
I'm losing my patience with everything and everyone.
I've tried writing it out, staying present, weeding, walking, showering etc...
I feel like a caged animal!!!

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.

Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job. It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it. Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown. There was a full length mirror in the changing room. I'm aware that I gained 5 to 7 pounds over the last year from cheating on Keto but I didn't know what it looked like. It was a reality check.
Take a moment to write out about caged animal-you might find the reason for that feeling.
Best wishes.
Vent that anxiety freely here, My3. We are here for you. Listening. . .
Addendum
I love dogs to the point where I consider the wolf my Earth spirit. I am not degrading myself to call myself a bitch, though I often wish humans would quit insulting my Earth spirit with what **they** call, "Bitch."
The beaten crazy part is a simple fact of my life. Healing journey in progress.
When my insomnia was at it's worst, I kept a supply of restful activities on hand to help me through those long nights. Studying, sewing, working puzzles, tinkering, etc were far more restful than tossing and turning while lost in my anxiety thought loops.
It has been years since insomnia has been a problem for me and I still kinda miss all those extra hours in my day. Sorta. Kinda. The blessing of a well rested spirit far outweighs the extra work I was able to accomplish with all those extra hours.
I've given up tossing and turning. Now i just get up and play games on my phone or watch TV.
I'm definitely better with sleep but those nights are VERY rare
