My anxiety...

[SDA]

Anxiety doesn’t follow a schedule or behave on command. It can make the most mundane tasks excruciating and otherwise trivial thing utterly debilitating. Hang in there as no matter how we get low, there is always a better way coming.

I have ave clinical anxiety disorder and it rules my life sometimes so when it is bad all I can do is focus on the now to keep me from going inasane.

You our are still so wonderfully young and still have a full life to live so please find some positive change even if it means abandoning everything you know. It’s never to bad or too late to make changes for the better.

Oh oh and thank you for sharing this it’s really powerful of you to do so.

I need to lurk here. I’ve been sinking for 20 years, ever since my divorce. Meds only work for a while, then they need to be upped or changed, but it’s alway a backslide.

we're rooting for you, too.

Sometimes mental illness feels like a sentient being. All the things you need to do to get better are exactly the things it tells you not to do. Go outside, be active, eat better, interact with people. It takes unbelievable effort to do any of them.

My parents made me get help in middle school. I was lucky to be able to get treatment, otherwise I doubt I would have through high school. I have made it to a good place in life, but I still struggle. Here is some limited insight from someone on the same battlefield.

First of all, you are worth it. You are worth everything. This is true even when you doubt it.

Second, take baby steps. Nobody can completely turn their life around overnight.

Sometimes I try to make a game of it, whatever my depression says I do the opposite. Don't take a shower? Okay, I'll take one. Stay up stupidly late when I have to get up early? Bed, here I come.

I have also found cognitive behavioral therapy helpful, and you don't even need a therapist to learn it. Lots of books and online resources.

A soon as you eat breakfast ( usually some form of carbs ) you will be hungry all through the day as your body will then be craving or chasing carbs all day . If you delay 'breakfast' you won't feel hungry until after you eventually ' break fast' later on ... it just takes a few days to 'educate' your body of the changes .

I didn't know that was a thing. I've been doing that forever. Only..I don't eat until late, I start with dinner and I like to snack in the evening. But I usually don't eat breakfast and I don't eat lunch.

ok i forgot to reply to this. u two are krazy! i love breakfast! i love eggs and bacon! mimosas!!
