I had a relaspe of my anxiety at start of last month, I am back on meds and getting therapy. Since then I can tell the anxiety has deffently been reduced but it is always kinda of in the backround. My anxiety was always very specific before so this is new to me. Kinda of like a dull headache that just doesn't go away. Anyone have experience with this? If so does it go away as I continue on the meds or is it me feed it

Hi Sage,

Kudos on taking the steps necessary to treat your anxiety!

I always equate anxiety like campfire. When it burning hot, you're in the midst of the flames. As your anxiety wanes, the hot coals of your anxiety remain. It takes a while for those hot coals to finally go out. Be aware that feeding those hot coals can cause your anxiety to "flame up" and take old again until the flames die down.

You're on the right path.... one foot in front of the other... Eventually, you'll come out the other side.
