Under stress at the moment trying to sell our house. One sale already fallen through so things are dragging on.
Suffered from anxiety for many years and really struggling at the moment. Just can't deal with things. Always have these niggling feelings of unease. I can't relax and it wears me out. The slightest thing can set me off. Just life's everyday things.
How does everyone combat these feelings? How do you relax?
I was getting better a while back but have slipped back and getting nowhere again. Can't think straight at the moment to begin to recover.
One example is the parking outside our house. We have a drive and I'm constantly worried about drivers blocking the drive so I can't get out (even if I'm not going anywhere!). Now and again it can get tricky if someone parks close but my reaction is out of all proportion to the problem! If I hear a car door go outside I'm up checking and that happens a lot. I'm worn out!!!!
Any advice / tips appreciated please.
