Congratulation. I know this works, I always did. Still it is nice to see it work for others.

Congrats Cara,
 
Having a person to see helps, I find, if you have the resource, and find someone compatible.  I may have to get a schedule change, since the location changed.  This didn't help during my work years, so I need to act quickly.

After two long hard days of setbacks, after two weeks of being back to myself. I feel great today. 

I decided to run to get rid of the excess adrenaline and cortisol in my body the last two days and today I feel good. Now when I felt so much energy today and felt awesome, in my head I questioned if this was normal? I haven't felt this energetic and wide eyed in so long. I asked myself if it was normal.

I guess the only difference from today and the last two days was that I did the challenging of negative thoughts homework again and I finally realized, the last two days during my set back I kept thinking about why I felt off? Why do I feel weird? why is this happening again? Why has it come back? I realized that I brought it back, brought back the habit of thinking why its happening, what is happening and if I was going mad or crazy or am I sick?  When all along I should've accepted it as normal. I added worry and fear again when I shouldn't have.  

I keep telling myself I'm healthy, mentally and physically and anxiety is just symptoms of having too much stress and worry.  Now I haven't had a panic attack because I know now hot to accept it and let it come and when I do It never does.

I feel great today and now after having my first real "weird" setbacks, I now understand that in order to be at the end of the tunnel is to ride in the train through the tunnel. 

Now I just have to hope for the best and make sure that I never get caught up with the old habits or if I do learn from them and move on.  

I start my job in a week and I hope it stays this way.
