View Full Version : Really struggling tonight...so anxious
Today has not been too bad but tonight someone came to give us a quote for a new driveway. He was here talking for 3 hours! Anyway they are going to start the work on Monday and my husband will be working away all week. Since the man left I can't stop shaking and I feel like I am going to cry, just feel so panicky, it won't even really affect me as they will be outside and the job really needs doing but I am getting so anxious about. I have just made some chamomile tea. I have had a headache all day and now it is worse. sorry I am rambling on I just feel so scared right now, I am so sick of getting these feelings.
Like you said, they'll be outside, you don't have to invite them in.... He's a professional, and nothing to worry about....invite a friend over to be with you if it helps on Monday....
Awww...So sorry you are having an awful night. That man no doubt set you off. I get worked up about this kind of thing...but remember..you feel like this now..Now isn't Monday...You will feel different then! Get that tea into you girl!! xx
I think it is just that he was here for so long and we hadn't eaten and the longer he was here the more anxious I was getting and my vision was going blurry and i just felt out of it like I did this morning. I am even struggling to type because I can't stop shaking and my eyes are going funny, I feel awful.
I get this way when people visit me. If I start feelng disconnected or anxious and they aren't shwing signs of going and keep chatting away.It is nothing personal it is just how it is at the moment!! Hope you can relax abit tonight Annie!!x
I have come up to the bedroom to lie down. I wish I could stop shaking, I am starting to feel sick now as well. This afternoon I cleaned the house down stairs and felt like I had made so much improvement and my foot felt a lot better now I just feel so bad, I hate this feeling.

He was just talking about everything and anything, I think we got his life story and all the time I was thinking please just tell me the price and GO!
Oh I'm somerset...can't pop over then I'm afraid. X. Lol
You have had a really busy and productive day! This just set you off. You know all to...distraction etc. I was this way last night. It really is horrendous when you are in. I always drink water...do some breathing and try and clear my mind. Tomorrow will be a good day again!!
I can totally relate to how your anxiety was triggered tonight. It is why I don't really enjoy visitors right now. xx
I don't worry when people come round our house.....but then I do have one of these.......
And one of these..........
I don't usually eat later than 6pm as it upsets my stomach waiting until later and I feel faint if I wait too long to eat.
The breeder who I bought my cat from breeds Husky dogs (I think that is what yours is Stormsky?
Aw Annie sorry to hear you feel so bad tonight, I think 3 hour visit is unbelievable, anyone would be stressed at that!!! Have your tea and maybey a wee bath. Do sons deep breathing. You have done so well today, it's just a wee blip and you are tired, anxiety is always worse when we are tired, I feel the same tonight but it's not a step back. We are exhausted xxxxx

We have just had beans on toast as it was quick to do! I have had some chamomile tea to drink. I have done a lot more today than I have done for 4 month so yes I am tired as well.
Black dog is a malamute, the grey one is my husky...

I find it really hard to concentrate when I am feeling anxious and have visitors.

I am getting the noises in my ears again...strange how it only happens when I am really anxious.
That is your thing so you know not to worry about it because it is only there when anxious..Do you have the tv on? Anything to keep your thoughts positive.
Yes I have it on but finding it hard to even concentrate on tv. Really hope this isn't going to be the start of me getting worse again.. I am trying to tell myself it is just because I am tired, have done a lot today and that man staying far too long. :weep:
Of course it isn't Annie!! Your foot is healing and you have made loads of amazing progress recently!!! I felt this way yesterday and had an amazing day today. So it definitely isn't going to go backwards! You get a good night sleep later tonight and wake up as positive as ever!! xx
I am thinking what if these builders end up being 'rogue traders' and I won't know if they are doing the job right and my hubby will be away and my neighbour is going on holiday next week. My other neighbour over the road is in the building trade though so I could get him to check it. they also said I don't have to pay until the job is done and I am happy about it. I just panic about nothing really don't I? I am such a numpty sometimes! My cat has just come up to keep me company :)
Stormsky...I saw this picture on facebook and thought of you :)
Haha my 2 would love that....thanks
Thank you all for your support tonight. I am pleased to say that I have calmed down again after chamomile tea, my meds and bach rescue night :)
