Hi everyone. As I said in my last post, I am going to be sharing my list of things that trigger my anxiety. It is quite long and I'm still going to be adding to it as time goes on. If you guys can relate to anything, or have any questions about why certain things stress me out, comment or PM me and I'll get back to you as soon as I can.
Here's my list:
1. Changes (environment, relationships...)
2. Lack of sleep
3. Leaving people I love
4. Not enough time alone
5. Neglecting my time with God
6. New unexpected challenges
7. Really loud noises (Mostly balloons popping)
8. Being too busy
9. Work/information overload
10. New things
11. Too many people in a smaller space (makes me feel claustrophobic)
12. Feeling sick
13. Feeling like I'm not loved or accepted
14. Feeling lonely
15. Being afraid of failing at an important task
16. Not trusting God
17. Overwhelming situations
18. Chaos
19. Being alone in the dark
...to be continued.
As you can see I have a lot of things that stress me out and I hope to slowly overcome some of them and work on casting everything on God because that's really what we as Christians should be doing. We should be trusting God with everything in our lives, no matter how big or small. I'm still on the road to trusting God with it all but I know that the more I learn to trust, the more free I will be to spread God's amazing love with others.
