Hello Everyone...
I was wondering if any of you have gone through this during your times of panic? When I have been dealing with panic for some time and I start to feel better (i.e. I don't obsess over anxiety all day long), it actually causes me some anxiety. I know this probably sounds weird but hear me out. It's like I get so USED to thinking and watching out for anxiety that when I don't have it it seems like something is missing- and that causes me anxiety. It's like breaking a bad habit. Even though I know it's good for me to stop obsessing I can't seem to help myself. It's like I've lived with it for so long that I sometimes don't know what to do with my time. For example, I had a relatively good day yesterday. I went a long time without thinking about how I was feeling. Today it's like I've been pulled right back in. It's like I'm trying to figure out what worked yesterday and I can't seem to be able to do it again today. I think it is that I just simply IGNORED it yesterday. There was no ANSWER or method. I was just doing other things to keep my mind off of it. Today, of course, I have to try and "figure out" what happened yesterday and I find myself right back in the throws of anxiety.
Has anyone gone though this? Does anyone know what the heck I'm talking about? Any feedback would be great because I'm driving myself nuts.
Thanks a million!
Sincerely,
-Tony
