Mine is out of control. It usually takes on the form of health anxiety but since having DS it’s definitely become more generalised
The latest headlines about Russia seem to have pushed me over the edge; I had managed it successfully throughout all the lockdowns, is actually getting Covid recently, all kinds of things that will usually set me off and was managing to enjoy life properly.
Today I feel Ill with it. The intrusive thoughts are creeping in, my usual techniques aren’t working and even though I’m trying to stay away from threads about things I’m getting that panicked feeling that I need to prepare somehow and that if I don’t stay up to date I won’t know what I should be doing.
I’m cross with myself because I’m making it all about me when I know the risk to us in the UK is very low at the moment but I think it’s been a build up of things over the last few years.
I’m wondering if I need to go back onto medication :(
