Steps Back

[Sus]

I feel I have been doing really well the last few weeks, back at work part time and been ok. Woken up this morn and feel like its 5 months ago, I feel I have no motivation this morn, just want to hide away. Have stomach pains agaiin and feeling sick. Have called in sick to work and annoyed cause its only my 5th week back adn sick already. Plus I hate leaving my workload for someone else to do. Just feel going round in circles, thought I was doing ok but today feeling like crap.

no guilt as that wont help. also no pressure to get better and never have off days, everyone has off days even if they do not suffer anxiety.

accept the stomach pains and let time pass til they go away, dont get annoyed by them as this means tension and that wont help.

you have been doing really well dont be cross with yourself, tomorrow is another day,

blips are part of recovery, they help you cope with average bad days as you get better. accept it all and move on without being angry at yourself

hope this helps. not my words but the words of claire weekes

take care, hope i get as far on as you one day

I bet if you have kept a diary and look back over it you are not back 5 months ago.

It is just a blip and be kind to yourself and you will get over it.

Maybe you have a bug or something and if you do that will be gone soon.

Don't be too hard on yourself - we all have blips and they do pass.

Tomorrow is another day
