  Learning to Accept that I Can’t Control Everything

  Hi all, Having a tough one today... it’s been a tough year honestly, but things started looking up a couple of weeks ago when my partner started his new job, after being out of work for 7 months. Now the same behaviours are staring to reappear again - he has taken two afternoons off as holiday hours, today he phoned in sick... this sets my anxiety going, and my thoughts start spiralling that he’ll lose this job too and we’ll be back to square one again. But I know I can’t control his...

  Hey all, it’s been a while since I last posted, but this site is so helpful to dip in and out of when you feel like you need a bit of a boost... I’m currently in one of those times when you feel like you have so many worries that you’ll never be able to dig yourself out of all of them There are lots of big scary things going on in my world at the moment, and it doesn’t help that all my friends I used to see on a regular basis seem to have faded into the background. Also I know that my...

  Does anyone else ever get a day, or a run of days, where they feel like all the people around them are thinking badly of them in some way? I sometimes find that when I’m feeling anxious, I notice myself getting very worried about what other people are thinking about me, and I fixate on things like the other person’s facial expression or the words they said... I don’t know if I feel like this because of events that have happened during the day/days, or if it’s just a feeling that is...

  My partner was diagnosed with depression in January, and he has just lost his job for the second time in 2018 (the first one was a long time coming, but this second one was very out of the blue)I am now waiting with terrified-bated breath to see if he can pick himself up and carry on, or if this time he will spiral down further. Things seemed to be going so well this past month, he has shown definite improvement with the depression and was happy in this new job. But just when I think things...

  I honestly don’t know which group to even put this in, there doesn’t seem to be a group for “General Life Problems” Just when I think things are on the up, and like I’m starting to feel in control of my life again, BAM something else comes along to whip the rug out from under me My partner has just lost his job for the second time in 2018 (the first one, ok, kind of hi so fault; but this second one has really come out of the blue) Will I ever feel like we’re not sinking, while...
