hi guys,
I know that you are not supposed to self diagnose yourself but I have been battling with anxiety recently for 2 years. I can manage it way better now! but on Friday I was experiencing headaches which felt like I had a hangover but I don't drink. I experienced it Saturday too in the morning. it was a great morning then I suddenly just crashed. in that moment I felt like crying but I couldn't but I feel like that is my only release to pain is to cry. I ate, went for a walk and felt better. then this morning I felt sick again. I still went for a walk with the fam and I drove.

I feel like now im in a life where 24 hours I try not to cry. but it is okay to cry as it is a healthy release but I hate to do it In public. I just have to remember that people wont call you out on those things as everyone is going trough something.

I know this is a new me as I have better coping strategies as I am self aware of my body and listening what it is saying to me using the ubhalt acronym uncomfortable, bored. angry lonely and tired and also being more accepting of how I feel and It is what it is.

what do you think guys ?

please let me know I am trying to see my phyciatrit about it to see what she says but I want some other imput first
thanks

There are times when we get a burst of energy. Feel like we can do anything in the World. We run out and do lots of things. Then later in the day we crash. All that energy is gone. Is a common enough thing with anxiety / depression. Going from full of energy to worn out. I tend to just do the things I know I can do. Things that won't burn me out. But at least you still went out, even when you were feeling sick. You didn't back down. So give yourself some credit. Those bursts of energy will happen from time to time. Just don't overdo it. Learn what your limits are. But we all have good and bad days. Just have to dig a little bit deeper on those bad days.
