Anxiety Stuff - Tumblr Posts
random but i’ve been second-guessing/having some anxiety about the thought of publishing my stories after i finish them.
cause idk i’m very protective about my stories, (also neurodivergent and it’s my special interest, might be relevant) and like my brain just kinda goes ‘no that’s mine don’t touch’.
so idk. anybody else have this??
hey, quick random advice for all my neurodivergent and OCD/anxiety-having people!!
while you’re feeling stressed about something, imagine a responsible adult coming in and telling you exactly why you have nothing to be stressed about.
trust me, this works :D (i think so anyways) i hope this helped somebody!!
13 year old me: yea i rlly only have a couple things that like, rlly disturb me, y’know?? and like, i just don’t like to hear about them bc it gives me like extreme anxiety. y’know??
me now: yOU LITTLE DUMBASS THOSE ARE CALLED TRIGGERS. THE REASON YOU HAVE MENTAL BREAKDOWNS AT THE SLIGHTEST MENTION OF SUICIDE IS BECAUSE IT IS ONE OF YOUR TRIGGERS. THE REASON YOU CAN’T STAND TO HEAR ANYTHING ABOUT SEVEN FROM LITTLE NIGHTMARES IS BECAUSE YOU HAVE A TRIGGER ABOUT CANNIBALISM. GET THERAPY.
i vividly remember being like five and being very upset and saying to my parents “i don’t wanna die!!”
(for context i have OCD and i was a very morbid child?? idk 😭)
Is it just me or does everyone with high social anxiety stop hearing properly in scary settings and hence have to lipread or ask them to repeat their words again
Dudes, is it…*normal* to have an anxiety attack when you’re around someone you’re crushing on?
Like, I don’t anymore, but the first time I met them irl for coffee (platonically) I like, had to leave because couldn’t breathe. And the second time. Which has never happened before even for *actual* stressful things like job interviews or school finals so wtf??
today was a high anxiety day for me and I've been fighting tears. I wanted to make a list of things I am grateful for lately to help.
☆ food we got from the truck yesterday (mainly flour to make desserts with)
☆ our youngest dog calming down and not being as reactionary as he used to be
☆ new friend I made at church and her familly being welcoming and loving
☆old church friend I have been able to reconnect with
☆ the beautiful area I get to live in
☆ bugs
☆ my good and caring pcp who was able to get me a higher dose of my medicine
☆ how much progress I've made with my struggles
☆my sister letting me use her computer to play minecraft
