I have such a problem with weekends! I do really well during the week because I stay busy at work and when I go home from work I'm busy doing other stuff and don't have alot of time to sit and focus on my anxiety. However, on the weekend, although I try to keep busy, I hate sitting at home all weekend. Someday this won't be a problem but for now, I just have to trudge through like everyone else.

Any of you have the same problem?

During my work week, I can home and do other chores because I still have momentum. But those weekends!I always have these elaborate plans on what I can do every Saturday. Hubby has Sunday off, so we're usually out and about. I plan to clean the frig...well, I open ...and close it...change of plan. I could go visit my parents...uhm no. There I'd be a gluuton for punishment and I no longer drink, so coming home to ease the sorrows of their belittling is out. I could go scoop poop from the backyard...ah, it can sit there one more day. Do bills? Nope. Finish sanding the dresser..nah. Watch a Lifetime movie, eat a thing of Pop Tarts and take a nap. Priceless!
