Feeling much better this morning. I managed to sleep through the night up until I woke up this time at 4am after a weird dream and my husband's alarm going off shortly after. Spent an hour with cycling thoughts before falling back asleep and waking up right at 7am. Not perfect, but definitely...

You sound like my mother. :LOL: Hazelnut is her favorite too. I personally hate coffee and so do my intestines. :D Herbal and decaffeinated teas are my go-to.

(Thought I replied to this and didn't) Nah, not harsh at all because I didn't find it insulting to myself. I find as the older I get the more I resonate with living under a rock and avoiding as many people as possible. :D But if the opportunity presented itself I would totally go to a concert...

It's a great exercise and I'm glad I stumbled across it. It's nice because you allow yourself to say everything you want to say and feel, but you don't send it (obviously). And then to keep yourself from going back and rereading it, and thus opening wounds that are trying to heal, you delete it...

At 3am this morning I found myself reading this article and decided if I still feel agitated later in the morning, I'll do this exercise of writing a letter. I have been feeling pent up guilt, sorrow, and anger off and on for months now, and since I stopped seeing my therapist it has only gotten...

Death stare by Lauren Mayberry? Worth it. ;) But yeah, just be thankful she didn't punt that phone out of your hand like that video showed. :LOL: So jelly you got to see CHVRCHES though. What a show that was, I bet! I'm one of those uncultured weirdos who has never been to a concert, but then...

Ah, yeah. Benadryl hits me hard too. Benadryl also leaves me wheezy with my asthma, as sometimes antihistamines can have a drying effect. So I try not to take it too often. Ultimately what's keeping me up at night with anxiety is just some unresolved tension I've been carrying around still from...

Feeling so agitated this morning. Three nights in a row woken up by weird dreams and feeling anxious. This morning had a weird dream resulting in me being angry for some reason. Tried to go back to sleep, was kept awake by anxious thoughts, then when I finally DID fall back asleep I was woken up...

Hahaha this made me giggle this morning too. :LOL: That's great though you got something to put a smile on your face when things start sucking. (y) I need something like that.

My interview went really well today. Had no idea what I was going to be walking into today for this job but I was pleasantly surprised. I was interviewed by one person in a small office with a screen between us, so no having to talk over masks, made it easier to understand each other. It's a...

Not really social anxiety but eh, related.

God do I feel that in my heart and soul. :LOL: That has been me this whole year. I managed to gain about 10 lbs during this whole quarantine/unemployment and definitely explains why a couple pairs of jeans no longer fit. (I wanted to think I accidentally shrunk them in the dryer. Part of me...

I got another job interview scheduled for Friday. Crossing my fingers this one goes well and I get the job. It's a 45 min drive from me. Not the one I absolutely wanted, but it's a job and I'm not really complaining at this point. It's still in the field I want, pay just kinda sucks but it does...

My therapist mentioned to me to actually schedule my "worrying time." But honestly I can't seem to schedule it because during the day when I'm busy I'm not worried about worrying. My mind is preoccupied, thus I'm not thinking about anything else. Much of my overthinking tends to happen at night...

I've been feeling really agitated again lately, moreso than usual. Two mornings in a row now I've woken up to a brain full of one thought after another after another and can't get my brain to stop. o_O I need to start recording thoughts again and I also need to take a break from talking to my...

Eesh that is rough. I'd be pissed off if I had to go through that many meetings too. Not sure if that's the reasoning for your being pissed, but I wouldn't doubt it. I often find much of my anger stems from my anxiety. The more anxiety-inducing the situation, the more drained and irritable I become.

Ah, that sucks. I hate it when I'm left without a car sometimes. I never go many places either, but I like having the option if I need it. I woke up at 5am this morning and couldn't get back to sleep thanks to anxiety and racing thoughts, so after laying in bed for an hour I got up and took the...

It has been a shit morning. Hoping the day will get better. :(
