Hi Guys
I have not posted for months - if not years. I have started to experience the old anxiety symptoms again after it went pretty well for the last two years. It helps to tell myself that I have been here before and that I will get over it again, but in the meantime it is good to be able to vent here.
My muscles are extremely tense and painful - especially in my neck and chest. This obviously leads to pains and aches of all kinds and I come to some nasty conclusions as a result. The latest is that old familiar "band around my head" feeling and a couple of really nasty tension headaches. Again, my jumping to conclusions does not help at all. :)
The positive thing is that I am not digging that same deep, dark pit for myself by engaging in all the thougts - I just remind myself that it is anxiety and that it will pass.
Hang in there guys. It gets better with time and the more you learn to accept your condition, the less power it has over you. It is merely anxiety followed by the wrong conclusions. It is harmless...
