Storms & Fear

Hi Ashley,
Although I wasn't using the thought records, I can better reframe situations, so I just "rode the merrygoround" of emotion, and am at the other end of it now.
 
It reminds me of the saying "anxiety is like a tunnel, just go through the tunnel and you'll come out the other side".
 
I'm out, a little sleepless, but ready to start over tomorrow.
 
Sometimes I think I'm better without the excess energy, since on top of the stress, I think I have food poisoning.
 
Now I have to admit something went wrong, and just pitch the foot, which was probably a big part of the sleeplessness and emotional upheaval

That's great hugs.
 
How were you able to manage the anxiety? Did you use any techniques from the program?

I've read about others struggling with storms, and it finally happened to me.
 
It wasn't the storm, but my response to another stress on top of too many concerns, so I lost a night's sleep, with too much on my mind.  I got  through it, and there's a rainbow at the end
