I have the day off and my team, which includes my supervisor, knew well in advance....so why do I sit her riddle with anxiety feeling like I skipped work and will lose my job?

I suffered from this sense of hyper-responsibility at work, too. It took several experiences of realizing that work will continue in my absence for me to finally relax. I started to set healthy boundaries and won’t let myself work when not at work, not even mentally; it works. ;)

Thank you! I appreciate this insight very much. I am still learning and trying to let thoughts and emotions play out. The worst happens when I am not thinking and just being content.

@rpdtw32 Hey, we’re all on this rollercoaster together. We can scream our heads off in fear or in joy. Try to enjoy! :)

Can't be home alone. How can I over come ?
It's been a year since I've been able to stay home alone. I don't know how to fight this. I feel like the world will collapse on me. That the house will cave in. Or I'll just lose my mind and scream and run outside screaming and saying the world is falling type thing. I don't know how to help myself. I'm to scared to even try to be alone. I have to have my son 18 stay home with me or my aunt stay with me when my son does leave. It's horrible. I feel like I'm holding my son back from so much. I don't know how to beat this. Please help

I’m stressed right now
I just found out today that a family friend will be staying over at my house (I live with my parents) for a night. And I have contamination ocd and that’s causing me anxiety. I fear that her being here will contaminate my home, which is like my safe place. It’s hard just sitting with the anxiety. I want this day to be over! Does anyone have anything to support me? Thanks
