One Word

What is one word that describes you?

My first thought was anxious, but I have worked so hard on managing my anxiety that I hope that’s not how I come off anymore. However, I know I had that thought because I have noticed my anxiety has been a bit high the last couple days. This may sound odd, but I wonder if it has anything to do with my body remembering that this is about when Covid was everywhere and we were all shutting down five years ago. I keep feeling anxious like something big and bad is going to happen, but in reality I don’t have any control over worldly disasters, nor would I want that control. I just don’t really have any stress going on in my life where I need to be feeling this anxious, so I’m wondering where it’s coming from.

    I was writing advice to you, but then I realized it’s stupid to tell you something since I’m not in your position. Try to feel where does your anxiety stem from, treat it like a guest, welcome it, if you can. Try to let it tell you what it wants. I know it’s easy to say that, it usually doesn’t work for me, but that’s what I try to do. I ended up giving you advice anyway. Well, hope it’s worth it. 🙂

      I love that idea: treat my anxiety like a guest. it kinda goes along with inner child healing- like what is it my inner child needs right now to feel safe? I am trying to shift into this mindset, and it is hard sometimes for sure, but also worth it!
