You were saying that you're feeling anxious about stuff like going back to work on Monday after a week off. Sounds tough. It's really good that you're sharing how you're feeling.
Sorry to hear that your necks hurting. How long have you been having neck pain for?

I dont really know. I am finding it hard to explain things. Sorry.
Um my neck pain comes and goes. But it started last year.

I find that this is actually quite a common feeling, even more so with those who have anxiety or anxiety related illnesses. However, the thought of going back tends to be more overwhelming than actually going back. Hopefully, when you go back things won't be as bad as they seem and everything will work out okay. *hug*

Thanks so much for your reply. Means alot. I see what your saying I am okay usually in the day but at nighttime the overwhelming anxiety comes over me. But then again in the days Ive been keeping busy.

How are you getting on? Is there maybe something you could think of to help you to unwind in the evenings, to ease the intensity of the anxiety?

Thanks for your reply
I think I am okay. Still super happy about having another nephew.
Back to work today and I woke up early before my alarm so Ive had time to chill a bit.
I got a early night last night which I think is helping my mood this morning.

Feel so anxious. Nobody to talk to about anything. Just feel so alone.

How are you feeling today?
You were saying yesterday that you feel so scared and that you're not OK right now. That sounds hard to deal with, you're doing really well to talk on this thread about how you've been feeling. How long have you been feeling this scared for?
You were also saying that you're pretty sure everyone would be happy without you and 'what is even the point'. This sounds really tough to feel this way. What do you mean when you say what is even the point?
It's really positive that you're opening about how you've been feeling on this thread.
Let us know how you're doing today *hug*
