Anxiety

Mind Sets

I've found that being positive helps and being negative makes it worse (sometimes) but I've found that if I think to myself "yes! I'm getting better I've improved today and yesterday was good too!" The day after it will be worse. Thinking negatively helps me not get my hopes up but being too negative makes me wish I wasn't alive. I have found a happy medium where I go with the flow and not think about the past or future and just deal with now and kicking my anxiety's butt, but I can only do that when I have sleep. Sleep helps a whole lot and without it everything goes wrong fast but that makes it harder to sleep. It's really hard and I've found that I'm only in that mindset for a few weeks at most. Drives in the countryside with music helps me get a better mindset but that only seems to last for the duration of the drive but at least I have a little break. I don't know what works for you obviously but I've found reading, music, drives and watching tv/videos can help. Sometimes what usually help can make me worse so it's about noticing how you feel and working out what works best for that time so I reccomend finding an few different things. I'm a huge daydreamer I always daydream and write stories which also helps keep my brain in check (to some degree). Recently I've been being homeschooled by a better agency than he last one I had (I don't remember if I mentioned it on here) but I've had to have a break becuase I didn't manage to recover from one lesson and I'm in recovery now but it's not really going well since I've just gotten more and more tired so I'm not looking forward to next week when she comes back and I also have a doctor's appointment for anxiety medication but I've got some CBD to try (please go to see your doctor before trying anything) which is herbal and I can take it with my other medication (I hate medicine it scares me, the side affects I mean) so I'll let you know how that works so hopefully I won't need the medicine fingers crossed. Anyway my punctuation has gone down the drain since its 5am and I still haven't been to sleep yet so good night or should I say morning and until next time ♡.
