The human mind is so friggin amazing! I am having a totally crappy day with anxiety on top of anxiety covered with anxiety. I know there is nothing wrong. I know there is nothing going to hurt me BUT I don't know what is causing the anxiety. I have several ideas but can seem to pinpoint it for sure. I think it is actually all of them added together. The strange thing is, I am having this anxiety and I kind of feel like I.... well, like it. I know that makes about as make sense as jumping into a swimming pool full of razor blades but thats how it feels. Oh, sure, I get waves of higher anxiety that arent fun and kind of make me irritated. But this, in a way, is giving me more anxiety because of the feeling of liking the feeling!?!?!!?! Am I losing it? HAve I finally gone over the edge? If I really wanted to would my voice echo in my mind? In my mind, in my mind. What is wrong with me? I have done the breathing and relaxing and counting nothing seems to help. Cant seem to shake this anxiety. Is there something else to try?
Help me please!
Auugghh! The amazing mind. Is mine gone?

Deedee has a point. We feel a sense of comfort with what is familiar. That is why many people, even those who do not have as bad anxiety as some of us, are so uncomfortable with change.
I had three rough days recently and I tried everything I possibly could and nothing seemed to ease my mind. Last night at work I found a solution that worked all night and has been working great all day today. ACCEPT and FLOAT. I was feeling anxious, scared, having obsessive scary thoughts, and was even crying from frustration. I finally said to myself, " I am not feeling great right now, I feel depressed and anxious. That is completely fine. I am human. I will work this out I have time. There is no need to try and find an answer why. I'm just going to keep on going despite what I feel. All of a sudden a few minutes later I did not feel anxious or depressed. I accepted and moved on, and without much effort I was @ peace. It is only anxiety and it will only last as long as you entertain it. If you accept it and move on, you add less worry and it is easier to just jump out out circular negative worry. Maybe this will help.
