Xmas brings its own anxiety, plus if you have no family or children its,even worse.
Isolation, jealous of others.. Loneliness....
Its hard xx
Christmass, in my opinion is just an natural anxiety. We obviously will have it slightly worse, but just be as nutral as possible and plan everything out!
I'm dreading it Jenny. My anxiety has been awful lately, in the last 7 weeks I've been gone from 20mg to 30mg to 25mg. It hasn't settled and the word Christmas or holiday is freaking me out to the point where I feel dizzy, shaky and just want to vomit. I just wish I could be happy by then!!! Off on holiday on the 26th for two weeks and I just want everything to go perfectly. ATM everything feels very intense and too much
How are you feeling? X
(On citalopram that is, sorry forgot to mention it)
Horrid to hear your all going through bad times with anxiety! I'm hoping Christmas Day itself serves you all well and our anxiety can be at ease for just one day! If possible! I'm feeling ok about the day as I see my family who I love and my niece and nephew who make me so happy when I see them! But I always get anxiety around Christmas time, I suffer quite badly with work anxiety which I have no idea on what's brings it on but I've had it quite badly all year :s can feel it starting to set it already and getting to the point where I'm just so fed up with it! Just hanging over your head all the time. Not good.
I hope everyone can find a day of relaxation from this, and take cooking for the family as a good thing just enjoy it I'm sure they won't mind! I know it's easier said than done, if worst comes to worst have a glass of wine or two! x
