Anxiety despite things letting up
A few things have resolved. Tests came back negative for feline aids or luekemia. So why can't my body calm the hell down. I still wake up trembling.
I haven't heard back about my mammogram, maybe that's in the back of my mind, lurking, waiting to clobber me. Can there ever be a time where I can just exhale and be ok for a damn minute?

It takes time to calm the part of the brain down that's triggered by flight or fight. I was going through
it this morning. I watch the leaves swaying in breeze and birds chirping for half hour or so. Taking
slow deep breaths. Or I watch a Utube nature channel . A stream, lake, etc. for a while.
glad kitty is not sick....hope the mamogram is negative....hugs bill
So good to hear about the cats' test results.
I hope your mammogram comes back negative.
I hear you, I am the exact same way with waiting.
So glad your cat is doing well. My wife has annual mammograms, and ever since this pandemic results have been taking longer to get. I stand behind me wife during this difficult time and it make us both nervous. So your not alone. I have done this for many others here at DS. I'm going to send a note off to Jerusalem where it will be place in the Whaling Wall. And they will pray for you for seven days.

Man, the people here are just the best, most supportive group. I am really grateful to you all for your comments. It means a lot to me. Thank you.
I'm so happy your kitty's ok... I pray your mammogram is clear...
Gentle hugs
I'd like to know about how you send a prayer request so it can be placed in the Wailing Wall. It sounds like a great concept.
