That happened to me last night and it’s soooo scary! Every time my anxiety gets bad that happens, it sucks! Do you go through this too?

I feel like this is one of those things we don’t talk about enough, even though so many of us go through it.

This one really hurts. Wanting to do something, knowing it would be good or fun or important, but still avoiding it because anxiety gets in the way.

It can make you feel stuck, like you’re the only thing holding yourself back.

So if you’ve felt this, please say yes!

Bibi is CRAZY about my husband’s armpit! She rubs her face on it, licks it, bites it… it’s a bit weird (but very cute lol) Do you also have a little weirdo at home? 😭

I could smell my cats all day long!! They smell amazing!! They all have very distinct smells, but they’re all so pleasant, I love them 😭 Do you smell your cats? Do they also smell like happiness and love? 🥺❤️

I’ve never tried group therapy before, but I’m really curious about other people’s experiences with it! Have you tried it? Did it work for you?

I have beautiful and exciting things happening to me, and the only thing on my mind is: “When will everyone realize that I actually suck???”… I hate how my mind goes to a bad place at the first opportunity possible. I wish I could just be happy, but my anxiety stains every happy moment I get to experience. I’m so exhausted from living in my own head :(

I have so much to do lately that I’ve just been sleeping like crazy. It’s such a weird feeling, it’s like my mind is so overwhelmed trying to manage everything that all I want to do is sleep for 20 hours a day 😭

I’ve struggled with insomnia before, so this feels like the complete opposite. Is this anxiety? Depression? Burnout? I genuinely don’t even know anymore, but it’s starting to take over everything lately 😔

This might sound oddly specific, but I know I’m not the only one who does this. So I’m curious how many of you relate.

I catch myself doing this all the time. Rehearsing conversations in my head, thinking about every possible response, trying to prepare for something that… never actually happens.

It’s exhausting, and sometimes I don’t even realize I’m doing it until I’ve spent way too much time on it.

So if you do this too, please say yes!

One of my goals for this year is to nurture my hobbies, but I’m struggling with this feeling that I’m not doing what I should be doing. It’s so constant, I don’t even know how to calm that part of my brain 😭

For me, it’s being at home with my cats! What about you?

Communication can be really hard sometimes! My husband and I are both very anxious, so most of the time we understand each other, but in those few moments where we don’t, it can be so annoying! Having to overexplain yourself is no joke 😭
How do you deal with it?
