Irrational fears are so frustrating when you are completely aware of how untrue they are but it makes no difference in how you feel. There's this split between the logical, thought-processing part of your mind and the emotional, like they're at odds. They say anxiety is fueled by irrational thoughts and beliefs but sometimes I swear I'm not actively (or consciously?) thinking anything, but I feel bothered.

Mindf***.

As someone who has suffered with ocd for years I know *exactly* what you are talking about.

I've had people tell me "well just stop those unwanted thoughts". They don't understand that it is not that simple.

I need to find the motivation to do more back stretching. Being lazy about it isn't a good thing. It's so hard to get started on anything for me.

Me too. It's very important that I do stretching every day, but most days I forget to do it or I can't pull myself together to do it. Why is that, why avoid doing something that is good for one self? Probably self-destruction and lack of self love.

Not at all. Seems most people fail to understand anxiety issues, even many people who have them - which I find especially baffling and frustrating.

What do I need to do to find some peace?

Work harder than anyone else at my place of work? Keep my desk tidy? Pretend to so******e with work colleagues at workshops? They seem to be the most performance indicators. not any projects I contribute to.

Pay all my bills on time? Weed my garden? Dare not look at anyone or talk to anyone when I go shopping, or go for a run in case they have a problem with me? Not speak my mind? Not speak out when I hear something wrong?

Hide my soul from the world in case someone, somewhere takes offense.

I have to start on Monday. It is hard to be not noticed.

Thank you- I thought so too. Alien is one of my favorite movies :)

A few years ago, I went to this really awesome museum in Seattle called EMP (Experience Music Project). It was in October and for Halloween they had an exhibit featuring props from sci-fi and horror movies and I had the privilege of seeing a real full-size Xenomorph from the movie- it was ****ing awesome.

Played pool for the first time in many years. Though I mostly sucked, I was still able to hit a few good shots and the game winning one as well. I usually feel nervous when doing this I am bad at in front of other people, but I made it clear I sucked and after a few shots I lost that nervousness. In fact, lowering everyone's expectations made it so I wasn't even nervous for that last shot, which I only noticed after a couple of minutes.

I'm such a wuss I watched a stupid horror movie by myself again and now I won't be able to sleep for a week without checking behind every doors and under my bed and possibly keeping a light on. Fuuuuuuuck why do I have to like horror movies??

I'm gonna watch some Disney movie now to replace the zombies and the blood with some rainbows and unicorns

Edit: Ah well that alien video did the job
