I have had anxiety for over a year. Amxiety and OCD (Intrusive thoughts) Suddenly when I dont feel them anymore like the symptoms or thoughts, Im like ok this is too good to be true and then there they come back again.
Does anyone else notice this too ? I can go days withouts having thoughts then I think back to when I had those thoughts, and it starts all over again.
Oh yes all the time it's sucks anxiety
Oh yes! This is me to a T. I suffer from anxiety and OCD and I have panic attacks. I usually do pretty good until, just like you I realize I have been fine for a few days, and then all of a sudden here they come back.....along with the irritability and physical symptoms, and all the other fun symptoms us anxiety sufferers have to go through.
Yes I get this done times I wake and feel I can face the world plan what I'm going to do and actually want to do something and feel good about it then bang the feeling comes back and most of the time it wins xx
Yeppp -_- thats typical for anyone experiencing anxiety issues, don't worry. I've been struggling with on and off anxiety for almost 10 years now (I'm 28). I actually find that when I'm not feeling anxious, I often catch myself thinking, 'hey now don't get too excited or happy bc u cud get upset again and be anxious again and you want to be ready for that'. It's an upsetting realization but I'm glad I realized I do that, bc now I can try and stop doing it haha. I'm seeing a therapist and it helps a lot. And I'm working on letting myself be happy and not being as fearful of the anxiety. I think over time it gets easier too, sadly I'm getting used to anxiety now and it isn't as scary as it used to be in the beginning.
YESSSS I know that feeling all to well!! You should try and distract yourself with some nice music, painting, going for a walk, cooking or anything xx I hope you feel better soon xx
This happens to me all the time it really sucks. What type of intrusive thoughts do you suffer from?
I irrational thoughts are bout heart stopping it's 24/7 hate this feeling
