morninganxiety

i’ve recently started to return to bad anxiety days starting with early mornings and tears. this has been the worst year of my life and life shows no sign of slowing down. i’m terrified all the time of what people think of me, since not i am almost unfamiliar to them. they see this bright girl they once knew, and inside it feels dark, heavy and depressing. my mind is in a constant state of fog; i have temporarily misplaced my ability to conquer all with a smile. i have descended into a different part of life and i feel like i have no road map and barely anyone sees how hard this is for me. i don’t want to be strong anymore. i’ve been strong my whole life. i’m tired of faking it till i make it. i’m tired of crying so much in secret. very few in my life understand what it feels like to change into someone who feels weaker than your previous self. i am in mourning of her. i miss my ability to shine in any moment. i feel like a dark dingy version of a once vibrant woman. in order to make the necessary changes, it means i have to make many scary changes, which i’m not necessarily up for, but i can’t keep living like this. i’ve already started to make some very important changes, and i hope i can begin to take back my life from anxiety. #mourningmyself #morninganxiety #Sadness

Literally the SECOND i wake up i already have insane anxiety like my heart is already beating out of my chest and i’m dizzy and shaky before i even have time to realize i’m awake, before i even have time to form a thought. and i feel that way all day long. i’m tired of living like this idk how much longer i can do it!!!! ive tried many medications, breathing techniques, and that stuff. but i feel like it’s out of my control sometimes since it literally starts before i am even fully awake. plz help!!!! #Anxiety #AnxietyAttack #morninganxiety

I woke up extremely anxious today for no particular reason. I did a grounding meditation and I was still anxious afterward, but I’m working on breathing through the anxiety rather than pushing it to the side. It’s less scary than I thought.

I literally have been in bed all day today. Now it’s time for me to go to sleep so I can get up for work tomorrow and of course I can’t sleep. A part of me is fighting sleep because it just makes Monday come quicker (it feels like). I do not like my job, but I am thankful to have income and somewhere to go, Because if I didn’t I’d be in bed all day tomorrow too. 😤 I just started antidepressants, I sure hope I notice relief soon.

Does anyone have anxiety that's so bad in the mornings? Every negative thought floods your mind. I find it hard to find a purpose to be motivated to get out of bed which results in an unproductive day. I feel I have too much life to live to. be like this. Also, Seasonal Affective disorder.... daylight savings time changes does not help me in the winter! its the worst! who wants it to be dark at 5 pm? ugh.... AM I THE ONLY ONE?

does anybody else have that panicked feeling as soon as you wake up for no reason? how do you deal with that?

Every morning before work I wake up with a sense of dread. The nausea, the anxiety, the shaking. Why does my job cause me so much dread? Anyone have tips on how to avoid or lessen this?

Since I’ve been in my most recent bout of depression and anxiety, I shoot awake every morning at 6am and the anxiety comes crashing in. I begin to ruminate and it quickly spirals. Does anyone else get morning ? How do you handle it? I’ve tried deep breathing and meditating and nothing helps me fall back asleep. 😢

The first day of 2019 I spent most of it sleeping and woke up immediately nervous. I have the worst morning anxiety. #morninganxiety #Anxiety Worried about what the day will hold let alone the new year. Worried if the new year will be as terrible as 2018 was. I guess for the first week of the 52 small things challenge will to be more positive and hopeful!
