My anxiety is making progress. I'm fighting as hard as I can it's slowly getting easier. It's still hard but I can't give up, even if my body and mind are telling me to give in.
Please keep me in your thoughts.
of course ya big nerd (looks like im gonna hardcore wedgie u but actually goes to ruffle ur hair)
soz to be That Jerk and idk if you have had a Formal Diagnosis of (motions head)......you know......but if you have you might find a book called "Asperger Syndrome and Anxiety" by a guy called Nick Dublin might help a bit even if ur not inclined that way entirely. its basically a little bit "anxiety for nerds" and i guess you can take or leave the majority of stuff from it depending.
strictly speakin its ~~~written for adults~~~~ but ive been finding it ok. its got some neat tips about tryina get ur parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest, as opposed to the fight or flight one which is the sympathetic nervous system, basically you either have one or the other on at once and the book goes on about this) back in charge with breathing exercises etc.
but thats all i know cos im still at the beginning of the book cos i have to read past the chapter where it talks about having meltdowns & it says "having meltdowns is ok, find a space to have them in private, now we will-" and ironically i ragequit the book there cos i have made it my lifes mission to never meltdown ever cos im not That type of autist but yeh im trying again lol
anyway if ur havin trouble finding it let me know
anyway its not easy but from one nervous nerd to another keep fightin the good fight!!!! youll get there and youll find out how actually powerless the anxiety really is when you do
