I have to admit, I feel anxiety on a daily basis. Today is no exception. I avoid a lot of things, things that I don't like, things that trigger me, etc. There are a lot of things going on in my life right now that I cannot avoid and my emotions are on overdrive. I have a sick feeling most of the day. Because of my addiction to perfection, if I can't do it perfectly, I just don't do it. (yes, I know that is not the way to live!) I stay awake nights trying to sort out the budget in my head. I know how much my paychecks are and I know what I have to pay and then I get sick. I constantly have butterflies in my stomach. I don't know how I am going to manage these finances. I am stressed that I may have to stop therapy because I no longer can afford it. Then I sit and think, if I don't have therapy then what will my quality of life be. I have been told that I have the skills necessary to survive, but to be honest, when you are in the heat of the battle, you are not thinking of your skills, you are thinking of a way out. I ask myself all the time, what are my coping skills? I become so overwhelmed that I usually just isolate and cry. I don't sleep much, that is even with medical help. I constantly binge eat, so yes I am gaining weight, which sucks. My foot is finally healed enough that I can start walking again, but then my energy is gone. I need to find the love of walking again. I need to find a desire to live my life. I don't know how to do this alone, even though others have told me that I can. There is just too much going on right now. I can't carry it anymore.
