Does anyone else feel fed up with their anxiety?

Lately I have wished there was a magic switch to turn off my anxiety. It's just so hard to deal with. Does anyone else feel like this?

Hi Paul,

Thank you, it is awful. Hopefully it will get better over time.

Hi Krystalramone,

Thank you, I am feeling ok today. I hope you are too.

Hi fringelily,

It is draining. I hope you are feeling ok today.

Hey Booklover

You have a good thread here with people that also suffer the same awful symptoms

I just wanted to ask if anyone is finding some comfort in the appointments with their counselor?

The more regular the counseling the better the recovery....even though it takes a while

Hi Booklover,

I am feeling a bit better today, thank you. I had a really bad day yesterday and was so exhausted that I went to bed at 7:30pm and slept for 11 hours!

I'm thinking of talking with a counsellor but haven't done anything about it yet. I am great at procrastination.

I understand so much. I just joined here so I could be around others who understood...I’m so sick of all of this...☹️

Gee I think about this thread nearly every day....So fed up I could scream lol. I got the loud chatter out of my system by yelling at it to go away, but blow me down if my mind didn't come up with new and unique ways of driving me nuts with anxiety. It's now a quiet whisper. I'm trying this new 'inner child' fad. Not sure what it's doing but the only thing that really gets rid of the anxiety at the moment is serious distraction. Ughhhhh so over it

good advice cakeboss as that as what i have done and it is very helpful to seek medical help i had medication for a while and it helped a lot.

I have just been invited to a Christmas party and that has totally freaked me out the anxiety is slowly going but it just annoys me that i can't just look at it and go oh that's great party that will be fun

At the moment I just wish I could have just one day where I'm not suffering from it. It (combined with depression) is affecting my long-term relationship and I can see that my partner is really worn down as he doesn't know how to help or deal with it. Anxiety is a frustrating beast as it's currently always over my shoulder questioning my relationship / love for my partner, my ability to do anything and even to go outside over the past couple of months. Bed seems like the safest place. I joined this forum as it is amazing to hear from others and realise that I'm not the only one suffering from this. xxx
