I’m taking a personal day from work on Tuesday and I’m going shopping with my mom and sister. I always look forward to spending time with them 🙂
Yes, mine is definitely worse at night. Like you said, it’s because I’m not as distracted as I am during the day, and I can just lay there and think about everything. When it gets really bad, to the point I can’t sleep, I try to journal. I write down all my thoughts or plans for the week, and that seems to help me some.
Guardians of the Galaxy (Volumes 1 & 2) are my favorite movies! They just put me in a better mood. They’re also funny, so they lift my spirits when I’m having a rough day.
A song I can’t help but sing along to, but also makes me feel better is “Float On” by Modest Mouse. Especially when I feel like my anxiety is getting worse, this song helps me get through a lot.
I can relate to this too. I have a hard time breaking from my “routine” but I know I need to do it so I can grow. I have to keep telling myself it’s going to be worth it. It’s also helpful to keep a planner and write down little accomplishments every week/month. I also have anxiety thinking about the changes I’m going to have to make in the future. I try not to worry about it now, but I can’t help it sometimes.
Thanks you guys, this week has been getting better thankfully! Saleana, moving into a new house or apartment is exciting, especially when your roommate is also your best friend! What kind of job/internship are you interested in? I’m hoping to get an internship next year too. I’m attending school for social work and I’m hoping to get an internship as a behavioral health counselor.
Amy, I love gardening too! I cannot wait for Spring to arrive so I can buy some hanging baskets for my front porch. It’s awesome you are getting a clementine tree! I rent my house, but if I owned property I would probably plant a cherry blossom tree and a lilac bush.
Hey Saleana, imposter syndrome seems really interesting as I have never heard of it before. I don’t know if this is imposter syndrome, but I have doubted myself a lot before. I don’t know how to describe it, but I feel like I’m not doing enough. I attend college fully online due to already working full time and my college is about 2 1/2 hours away. I also have social anxiety, so online is a blessing. I’m not sure how to put it, but I feel like I’m not doing my part by not physically attending school. Someone told me you’re taken more seriously if you actually attend college versus online. I don’t know if that’s true, but I have felt doubtful since then.
Thanks for sharing that quote Saleana. I’ve never heard that before, but I like it. When I think about that quote, I think about trust. Like getting over a break up. If you don’t heal from the break up, you’ll never allow yourself to open up to anyone else and be happy.
Thank you all for your advice! Amy, I never heard of the circle technique. I’m going to have to try that. I just have a lot on my mind like work, college, family, money, etc.
Hi everyone! I love interior design and decorating my home. What’s your favorite places to shop for home decor?
February 11, 2021 at 6:49 pm in reply to: Share one thing that happened today that was positive! #11921There was an ice storm where I live and I had to call off work. But on the bright side, I was able to get some homework done for school so I won’t be rushing to get it done this weekend. Also the snow is pretty, but I am ready for Spring and flowers!
I definitely understand. I work in healthcare and this pandemic has been exhausting.
I actually watched a movie last night called “It’s Complicated” with Meryl Streep and Alec Baldwin. It made me laugh and I thought it was a good movie.
Yes, I have been feeling more anxious lately. I’m currently enrolled in an online university majoring in social work, but I also work a full time job. I’ve been worrying about the future and wondering if I’m making the right choice. I also have social anxiety (I do take medicine for) and I’ve been worrying when the time comes to do an internship, how am I going to be able to quit my job and find a place to intern. This is a few semesters away and I still worry about it. It’s just something that has been really bothering me lately and has been giving me doubts about even going back to school.
