Off to work today for the first time in six months! A bit of perceived tongue swelling this morning and buzzing up my neck and left arm and shoulder pain, I must remember this is anxiety I want to be able to work! Off I go, any suggestions would be great!
Have a great day everyone!

B.,
I hope that you have an excellent re-entry to your workplace today!!
Know that going back after having a time away...anyone would be nervous...this is normal.
Remember that anxiety serves a purpose. It keeps us sharp and motivated. Those physical sensations happen for a reason. You may have a little more than the average person...since you do deal with an anxiety disorder...but you can get through them!
Use your coping skills. Rely on what you have learned. Use your postive mantras...words like:
I Can
I am going to be fine
I am capable of doing this
Avoid phrases such as:
What if?
I can't handle this...
...because you
CAN!
Let us know how it goes when you are able to okay?
Peace and progress!! :)
