I won’t go into too many specifics but my mind will not seem to quit today and I’ve had intense anxiety all day. I constantly want to run and run and run. I felt really good yesterday but today is a tough one. I could use some words of encouragement or some advice for how to stick with the extra tough days. Thanks💘
It’s normal to feel that way.. I have my days where I’m moving forward and then a little kink happens but I know that eventually with time , even if it’s hours long, the anxiety eventually comes down to tolerable levels. (Then we are sadly worried about the next thing lol) but I kind of accepted a few weeks ago that so much bothers me, that I think to myself literally everything is gonna bother me so I have to accept that it bothers me and let it linger until it fades. It’s not easy. But when that “next thing” comes and bothers me, I tell myself “ok yeah it really is just my brain over analyzing and over thinking”. I just bought a calendar off of Amazon called the “F*** It Calendar-for tired ass the women”. So corny I know. But it’s pretty motivational honestly 😂 I am in no way extremely religious at all either but I actually am going to try to start reading a bit of the Bible because my bf always says that fear is the devil..! I’ll see how that goes.
i'm really sorry to hear you're having such a tough day. it sounds like you're dealing with a lot, and those intense feelings can be so overwhelming. remember, it's okay to have days that aren't as good as others, and it's super important to be kind to yourself, especially on the hard days. 💖 by the way, have you heard about this new AI-powered OCD therapy tool called 'unstuck'? when i was going through something similar, this free AI OCD therapy tool (unstuckmyOCD.com/try) that my NOCD therapist recommended really made a difference. i think it'll be especially helpful for you because it offers personalized, step-by-step support for those moments when your mind just won't quit, acting like an OCD therapist right by your side. i hate when people promote stuff, but i really think it can help you because it's changed my life. lmk if you have Qs or just want to talk more! <3
i use unstuck and highly recommend u check it out too!!
I'm really needing advice right now. The past 3 days I've suddenly felt so overwhelmed by my thoughts even though I was doing much better for like a week. I'm struggling so bad with just feeling very down, anxious, and all around just bad in general. I'm usually pretty good at keeping myself maintained, but today I'm just not and I have to work my job today. What do I do? I've already texted the crisis text line and told my boyfriend what's happening. I have a therapy appointment on Tuesday, but I gotta get myself to that point. I just really need some good advice and help right now.
Hey everyone, could use some inspiration today. Having a lot of anxiety around real event and wanting to confess a possible “lie.” Sitting through most of the urges to ruminate but the anxiety is just very uncomfortable. I’m also 9 months pregnant and feeling really sick today which makes it tougher because I can’t do much moving around. Any words of hope would be awesome.
