Things people with Anxiety want you to know

We are people . We are just people who tend to worry more then most.  We know that what we go threw dose not make sense and it gets in the way. We get just as frustrated with our self's as our friends or family may. Don't tell me to suck it up. Do you honestly think I would be doing this to my self if I could just suck it up... Its not fun. It's not like I wake up and think to my self I Want to feel like crap today, I am going to have anxiety ... dont tell me to learn to deal with it. It may not seam like it but I am dealing with it. some days are worse then others. there is no control. I dont pick when I am going to have anxiety ... None of  that helps. We know its hard on you. we are not trying to hurt you. It hurts us when we go threw it , It hurts us knowing it's effecting you. When we are going threw Anxiety or a panic attack do not give up on us. We need you. you need to understand that when you are going threw it sometimes there is nothing you can do to comfort us sometime we just have to go threw it. let me lock my self in the bathroom and cry it out. Don't keep pushing when you see we are braking. Back off. give us some breathing room to claim down. be patient. we are sorry . This is not something we choose to do because why on earth would any one choose to have Anxiety! ? this was a video I found and saw some of my friends posting. I think it speaks to the heart and gets to the point.take a look. Have a better understanding .

When you realize your capable

My last blog post was how hard I was having with returning to work after 8 years. I'm finely feeling comfortable. The first week or so was so hard on me I came home crying almost every  night. I was having to deal with new things and felt overwhelmed with so many things . Being away from home and my family. Coming home and my kids were already in bed because they had school in the morning. I was so unhappy. Having to deal with the public. There were time and still are when I just want to hide.  Anxiety has a way of making you doubt your self. This is some information I found  on another blog. And the facts are dead on. The info below is from http://www.healthyplace.com/blogs/anxiety-schmanxiety/2014/06/anxiety-and-self-doubt/ Anxiety and Self-Doubt *At the core of an anxiety disorder is not knowing when it is appropriate to trust our feelings. If a person can’t trust his or her own thoughts because they are saying there is danger when there clearly is not, how ca...

I love this. click the link to view and hear her speak. But  there is no joke about it ...there is no shame! this is a fantastic example of how  many other people suffer. How other people deal with it. And its clear its time to speak up. I will post the link  and also paste some of what she said.  http://www.people.com/article/kristen-bell-opens-up-about-mental-illness  Quote is from Kristen Bell:: "[My mom's] a nurse and she had the wherewithal to recognize that in herself when she was feeling it and when I was 18 said, 'If you start to feel like you are twisting things around you, and you feel like there is no sunlight around you, and you are paralyzed with fear, this is what it is and here's how you can help yourself," Bell added.  Despite there still being a stigma associated with mental illness, the  Frozen  star said she's not ashamed to ask for help when she needs it, and takes medication to keep her anxiety and depre...

Being a mother with Anxiety and Depression

I want to start this  post out by saying being a mother in its own  comes with difficulties. I also want to start out by saying being a mother is one of the most challenging yet rewarding gifts I have ever received. I have struggled with my Anxiety  for a long while. It is an on going battle that I will face the rest of my life. My oldest Kid is 8 years old right now. I feel like yes there are still challenges and difficult times behind  but I also have a little better understanding of my Anxiety. It is still something I will never fully grasp. Every day I work on it . I am going to get into something personal but I also feel like it is something women should hear, And be aware of.  I only have 2 children. I am also from Utah. Utah is a state where you get married young I was 20 years old and you also have LARGE family's.  How ever I do see a change in the trend with fewer large family's. I still get asked if I am going to have more children. My answer is ...
