Why do we aim to please people all the time, is it our condition or are we just too damn caring.
I have spent the last month making sure everyone else had a nice christmas, and i do it unconditionally. I like to see the pleasure on other peoples faces and I expect nothing in return.
But the end result is my anxiety goes sky high, i end up feeling very stressed and tired all the time and when everyone else is having a great time, i am sitting back wishing my anxiety would lighten up to give me a chance to enjoy it as well.
What gets me is no one notices and even if they do they just ignore you completely, irrespective. I try to pretend im fine, but when you go to your room and leave everyone else down stairs they think its cos you want attention when all you want to do is hide.
Who actually notices us when we need help or support. SO I HAVE COME TO A DECISION. 2007 is going to be my year, The year I beat my anxiety,cos feeling as I have done in the last 4 weeks has left me heratbroken and void of any energy and I cant keep doing this all the time.
We have to put our needs first in order to feel as good as other people, I feel like I am going to be selfish but is it selfish to want to be 95% better ??
I have been so sad this xmas and so lonely shut out from the rest of the world, i never normally drink but this year I have had to drink to get over the worst feelings
I hate to sound so depressing but I have not stopped crying on a daily basis for three weeks now and it has to stop doesnt it ??
scknight
