Good morning, good night
To all my LP Family members in the States, i heard the snow is terrible in some parts… How are you doing there?
OT: still in bed (9:40 in je the Netherlands), feeling pretty happy because of all the fun messages in here my anxiety disorder is kicking in a lot lately, so it makes me feel good to wake up smiling this morning. Thank you all
Thanks to you too!!
OT: choosing references for my sketches
I do believe you missed the sarcasm lol
Just been sitting on the couch, thinking that i wish i knew someone with an anxiety disorder who i can talk to. I just feel like no one understands how it is to have these thoughts every day that im gonna die… Wish i could talk to someone who does know what its like… Anyone on this forum perhaps? that would be way to easy i supose lol
I got sick yesterday so im just sitting / lying on the couch with absolutly no energy to do house keeping chores or what ever my cat is looking at me “hey, woman, get up your feet and give me food!”
Seriously now… is there any group you could join to talk about your disorder? are you seeing a psychologist for that?
is it thoughts like thinking accidents are going to happen near you?
Hahahahaha thats kinda how he was looking.
Im not seeing a psychologist atm, my sessions were done, i had everything under control. I still have it under control, but the thoughts will never go away, so it would be nice to talk to someone about it.
Thoughts like:
Nobody likes you
You’re gonna die when you step in this car/ get on your motorbike
When im gonna walk down this stairs im gonna fall and break my neck
If i talk to people about my anxiety disorder then they will think im just seeking attention and i will loose everyone i love
These kind of thoughts
Aaaah I’m sorry I ask because for some reason I’ve had thoughts like this lately… especially if I have someone in the car with me or something-like the responsibility weighs me down
it surprised me to think that way a few times lately but idk
So that’s why I was a little intrigued by you saying that
It’s coming from somewhere though… those thoughts… I think I understand my own fears but maybe if at some point you can realize the root of this it could possibly help you understand it better … it’s not a solution but understanding is power over it
And in the meantime, you’ve got us to talk to! As I just said, I kind of sort of at least know the kinds of thoughts though I never really mention them much but it’s not weird or uncomfortable or anything to where you shouldn’t want to talk so just relax and vent if you need to whenever
This
We’re a bit overthinking I guess…
I mean… we are a bit sensitive about other people, that’s maybe why mind thinks about all possibilities… including bad ones…
I agree with what @framos1792 had to say
And this we will be here for you
@birdy1989 the people and the forums are wonderful people and helped me though so much
And we care for each other because we’re family and will be here for you
Thank you all, really ive only been here for a couple of weeks but i really feel at home here. You’re the best, all of you
More than anything, we’ve mainly had very bitter temperatures, but that’s normal this time of year. We had some snowfall earlier in the week, but for the most part, that seems to be subsiding.
On topic, watching the news before lunch.
@birdy1989 I have social anxiety but I get it. I tend to stress a lot about pretty much everything. @the_termin8r and @AJ_7 know it very well
I skyped with my parents and now waiting for the snow to fall. I want to re arrange my dresser and closet so I might get on with it.
I started writing a little and just found out I have been writing for an hour now I’m going to get some sleep (23:27 here). Good night everyone, talk to you in the morning
You’re a writer! Nice!!
Thanks and good night to you too!
You’re a writer @birdy1989 I would love to read something you have written
And also have a good night
Waiting for more snow to fall…so I don’t have to go to work today haha!
Sitting in bed with my laptop. Work started off tonight like one of those nights where I felt like I was just going through the motions. I just didn’t care, and I wanted to get it done and over with.
I felt a hell of a lot better once I started blasting music (it started with Paramore, then Rise Against, Spoken, Mike Shinoda, then Laura Jane Grace and the Devouring Mothers) and hearing that music just bouncing off the walls of that empty school.
I also got paid today!
