My struggle with anxiety is so exhausting. I could be having the best day and then it just hits me. Like today, had a friend meet me for lunch and had a great catch up. Got into car and bam! there was my anxiety hitting me like a truck. I try and push through. Sometimes it works other days it’s polarizing. I’m so thankful for my therapists and so surprised I now have two therapists. Was never sure I would have one let alone 2. But I have been so fortunate with my first one, she’s been so great and has really helped me. I also have a problem when I’m away from my people. As much as I want my alone time, when they are gone I miss them and their noise so much.

I have found when I’m busy it doesn’t affect me as much. So yes I try and stay busy, not be on my phone as much unless it’s work related, however social media does draw me in. (Side note: I just saw the Coca-Cola holiday commercial and it made me smile).

So tonight, I’ll be working, watching friends, preparing for my race tomorrow and distracting myself.

Have a great night 🫶
