Feeling Super Tired Today
So, uh, you know, about three weeks ago something pretty awful happened, and ever since then I've been kind of stuck in this really dakr place. You know, my anxiety is through the roof and it's like my brain just won't let me breathe or relax at all. And yeah, normally I teach dance classes but haven't stepped foot in class for three whole weeks now. Trying to force myself back isn't feeling great right now-like every fiber of my being doesn't want to leave this safe space.
Anyway, walking out teh door feels like a challenge these days, because you know how it goes: heart racing, breaths shortening, and just generally not feeling okay in public spaces. And man, when there's no one around or it gets quiet at night, that's when all the negative stuff comes rushing back into my mind.
So yeah, going on autopilot and keeping life simple has kinda become the goal lately. Getting enough sleep feels impossible-like three hours is a good day if I'm beig honest. And eating? It's rough because either ther's no hunger or everything just sounds too yucky to even try. Outside can feel scary like, "what if?" moments are always creeping in. Sometimes it's overwhelming.
I mean, I needed to tell someone this, put it out there at least-because somteimes it feels like everything is coming down and there's nowhere else for me to go. But you know, the friends around me have been solid support since day one even when they weren't before. Yet still, that loneliness can snak up on a person, right?

Sorry to hear about your struggles, really. You know, I've been there too, dealing with anxiety and panic attacks for ages now. It's not easy, but honestly, it can improve over time if you stick with therapy and reach out to folks who understand what you're going through
I hope things get better for you. There are support lines that might help if you need someonne to talk to. Maybe you've thought about talking to a counselor or therapist? It sounds like what you're dealing with is really difficult, and it's okay to seek professional help. The behaviors you're experiencing are connected to the trauma.
It sounds like you've been going through a difficult time. I hope that the support you have will help improve your situation, even if only slightly. Please don't hesitate to reach out when you need someone to talk to. Engaging in activities that you enjoy can also be beneficial for keeping negative thoughts at bay. You are incredibly valuable and deserve the very best.
