Anxiety Self Help

I know I know I shouldn't have coffee but I neeeeeed it and I love it! It's the hardest thing to quit for me, worse than cigarettes and alcohol. Ugh. In other news, yesterday I was able to go to the dentist and therapy alone. After I was even able to give my drug store a visit. As I was leaving, a giant gust of wind blew in and knocked things off shelves. It's been kind of stormy since then. I love it. Am I the only weird one that is soothed by gloomy weather?
Night time is still difficult with my anxiety. Even if I'm out all day and don't have panic, I still feel weird at night. Anybody else feel this way? xox~J

My Comments From: gomizzou Apr 28 2012, 4:45 am Hi Jessica, it's Todd(wow, as if you couldn't figure that out on your own!)...no, you are not the only one that likes "gloomy" weather. I have a thing for overcast days...I'm also a fan of wind(not, like, hurricane/tornado-like wind, but just regular...wind). Something about the wind soothes and reinvigorates my soul when I feel it. I don't know--maybe that's not uncommon..maybe a lot of people get that way about the wind. From: triggered Apr 26 2012, 7:23 pm Stop drinking COFFEE I meant. From: triggered Apr 26 2012, 6:48 pm mmmmmmm.... coffeeeeeee..... I really should stop drinking after lunch, though. Maybe if my sleep gets all messed up again. The only stormy weather I like is the kind with warm gusty winds at night, lightening and no rain. Stand outside and feel the wind on my face. From: Mo Apr 26 2012, 4:30 pm I feel weird all the time; does that count? Just kidding- yea I have my times. I'm totally with you on the coffee thing- only its Redbulls! #$%%^ my anxiety- I need the caffienne to counteract the sedating effects from the meds i am on. Thanks for posting. From: jen13 Apr 26 2012, 4:28 pm Hi!, I sometimes get more anxious at night because I think sometimes our bodies relax and it feels strange to us because we are so use to that "wired/tightly wound" anxiety feeling all day. p.s. congrats on going to the dentist alone!! that is HUGE because I know people who don't have any anxiety and all and are terrified to go to the dentist! AWESOME JOB!!! From: am3ient Apr 26 2012, 4:12 pm coffee yeeaaaaay! night frights boooooo! nothing more satisfying than coffee half asleep in the morning..mmm brain stimulation
