so anxious

hi, i'm Rich N. i'm so anxious today about a number of things. early morning is my bad time to worry.

first of all it's cold outside and that always scares me a little, even though i have warm clothes to wear. next is work, i have a lot of it - way too much - and although i have talked to my boss, it seems like i will never get caught up, and i'm worried about criticism from other people who don't know what they're talking about.

then there is my 12 step program which i am only making small, very small progress with.

and then finally i saw a raccoon in the backyard about a week ago and i'm afraid it will come back.

i try to pray for relief and change my thoughts but don't get very far at all.

thanks for listening, love,
rich

Hi R.,

I hope that your anxiety has eased off a bit now that the morning has passed.

I know that the a.m. is challenging! Great job on always getting through it! I know that it is never fun while you are in that time of anxious thinking...but you do always beat it!

How are you doing on your own? Is your sister still away? I commend you on keeping things going and holding down the fort during this time! Well done.:)

Keep positive! You are strong with your coping skills, keep it up the good work!

S.C.
