Punishment for being Happy
I've been struggling with my anxiety and body aches. I felt like I was finally getting into a routine and feeling better but now my body aches are making a comeback. I had a really great day yesterday and went out for a long bike ride without a bunch of panic getting in the way, but today it feels like my body is punishing me with these body aches. No one really gets it, like it's just sore muscles. It's not. I woke up feeling like a bus hit me square in the sternum and the panic is back.
I want to think I'm getting better but it feels like my body and my anxiety have something else in mind. I'm trying to keep in mind that I can't expect to handle a lot of high stress situations but why can't I just enjoy something for once? #Anxiety #mentaldiseasephysicalpain #chronicpainlife
