extra anxious today

[zachary]

so i’ve been doing so much better with my anxiety finally feeling more like myself and so my family decided to take a week vacation with extended family all in one house and last night i had such a bad head ache i just went to my room in the house and slept but like i woke up and just wanted to be home in my room and i almost had a panic attack and now my brain just feels kinda fuzzy and weird and like somethings off and my muscles are super tense it’s not as bad as i was before and i can function but i’m just very uncomfortable and i’ve been taking my meds regularly so it could just be being away from home and with a bunch of people i’m not used to being around 24/7

Hi zachary. Do you have the option of leaving? I have learned over the years to make sure I have the option to leave social situations if I become too uncomfortable. I've also learned to not worry about what others might think about me if I choose the option to leave early. I don't make up any excuses, just say my good-byes and leave. If they can't accept me with my disorder, I just can't worry about that. You have to take care of yourself first and it allows you to do more socially if you know that you can and won't feel badly if you have to leave when necessary.

sadly i cannot i’m am here for a week and i have an area i can go to to calm me down and being around everyone and trying to like conversations helps but i just have a constant uneasy feeling and i don’t want it to get any worse but i’m calming down as the day goes on and in a hour i can take sum more meds to help calm my nerves

It's great that you have a calming place. Perhaps you can invite your favorite person there to join you during your calming period(s). That way you won't feel like you're being anti-social by going there. I admire that you can spend a week away from the security of your home. I'm just not able to do that.

You'll make it. How many there know about your anxiety? Hang with them and you'll make it. Or confide in someone who you think will understand and it will make your stay easier.

Hi Zachary. It's natural to miss your home and routine. Take it one moment at a time. Good for you for identifying a calm place.

that’s wut i’ve been trying it’s like i want to be home but i honestly don’t know what difference that would make so i’ve talked myself down quite a bit and it’s manageable
