Sometimes I do use food to self-soothe. But I also have periods where I can't eat much at a time because if I feel remotely full it makes me super anxious.
This morning I opened my computer and went to check my email. When I got on the yahoo page I saw an article title which was about Super HEad Lice. I couldn't help but read it. It freaked me out and I began obsessing. I lost a whole hour just reading up on Super Head Lice and obsessing and freaking out. Now I am super anxious. And I feel like crying.
And now I am afraid that my kiddo and thus my family will get these Super Lice once he goes to school. Ugh! It's like my mind is stuck and I keep obsessing!
It's exhausting and uncomfortable, this obsessive thinking and anxiety!
Thanks for the insights Davit. Truth bee told though, I get obsessed and anxious about the idea of plain old lice. I am afraid of all the extra work and I hate bugs. I am barely managing to keep my home under control, kind of. I can't imagine how I would manage any kind of lice infestation… The sheer thought makes me anxious and makes me want to cry...
Sometimes the best thing to do when you are tossing and turning in bed is to get back up and do something quiet like read or watch tv, Then when you feel sleepy you go back to bed. Anyway, it's what I have been told.
Today I feel robbed. I feel like my anxiety/worry/panic is robbing me of so many precious things.
Last night, Hubby wanted to watch one of our favourite shows together. Well guess what, I had a panic attack. Ruined the evening. I still ended up watching the show but it wasn't the same, it wasn't as fun. And right after the show, I went up in a panic and got into bed to just drift away.
I don't want to be robbed anymore.
I want to be able to be tired without it causing me to have a panic attack. I want to be able to stay up late if I feel like it without panicking. Heck, I want to drink the odd cup of coffee here and there. I want to be able to drink chocolate milk or coca cola. I want to be able to eat chocolate! I want to be able to just go about my day without having to think about how I am gonna get through my day.
Anyway, this turned out to be more of a rant then I had expected.
