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...
You may have noticed I post about morning anxiety. For some reason, and no idea why, nothing has changed and even foods were the same, I didn't wake up as bad this morning. However with that said.

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.

Once I started to look at the 'stress' itself, and remove the anxiety (I already acknowledged the sensations) from the problem solving, I found a way to move through the moment and be positive, which then changed the way the feelings felt.

I did also write that i get those feelings that something isn’t right or something’s going to go wrong. So that I have maybe even more today because in my mind I feel like I have to suffer in some way.
would it be fair to call that need to suffer "a persecution complex?" just wondering. by whatever name, it definitely sounds like an anxiety root.
but aside from that, early into my current anxiety management training, awareness, alone, was enough to make me feel my anxiety in more ways and places. my anxiety had not escalated. i was simply more aware of the symptoms and the devilment they can cause. it is amazing how much we can fail to notice when we are busy repressing.
