Anxiety and Stress
Another dreadful day awaits.
It’s been a good day. But while lying in bed, thoughts start to creep in, making you feel hot and sweaty, with your heart beating quickly and your skin feeling uncomfortable.
“How did this happen again? Nothing is happening around me, but inside me; it is happening to me. I don’t know how to stop it. I hate this feeling, and I want it to stop.”
You lead a successful life full of friends and have a good job and a partner. No one knows how hard it is for you to navigate or to keep things looking perfect.
The dread you feel makes you begin to turn down invitations and are snappy with the kids and friends who don’t understand the changes. You’re making excuses and apologies that you have never had to do before.
You are harder on yourself than anyone else.
The negative self-talk is out of control. Life is nothing but stress, increasing daily.
While everyone else congratulates you for a job well done, your brain tells you about a minor detail you should have corrected. When complimented, you immediately dismiss it and change the subject.
Perfectionism is controlling your life and making you miserable. Your anxiety levels are peaking.
Even little things keep you on edge. Your anxiety continues to build, making life miserable.
