I woke up this morning with a wave of bad anxiety. It happened as soon as I got up and out of bed. All of the stress of the week and other things going on in life hit me really hard. I seem to manage things as well as I possibly can day-to-day but for some reason everything felt like it came crashing down on me this morning. I couldn't shake it and couldn't find a place for myself. I didn't know what to do or where to turn. Nothing felt right. I couldn't meditate, I couldn't go for a walk, I didn't even want to talk to anyone about it. It was really strange. As the day progressed things got a bit better and the only reason why is because I started working through what was wrong and went through each thing one at a time. Then I was finally able to go for a walk, get some fresh air and now I feel better. Not 100% but better. Boy oh boy, this was a tough one to shake but I'm glad that I did.

I totally get you. There are some mornings where I wake up and feel great and other times I feel sooooo irritated. I have tried to figure out what is different on those irritated days but I just can't seem to get it.

ugh, i totally get it. there are moments that i want to crawl out of my skin and can't find a place for myself. like now, i can't seem to catch my breath and don't know what to do. maybe a walk will help. i'm going to try that.
