There was a time many years ago where I was almost agoraphobic. You see my crippling anxiety had become unmanageable and it manifested into a fear of public places and people. I finally bounced back and eventually made some good life changes. This week was another huge eye opener. While I have been doing better with health and exercise, I havent been as good at taking care of myself emotionally and I finally came down with a terrible case of TMJ. Some lifestyle changes are in order. Like many folks I feel like I dont have time for things such as yoga or meditation..I kid myself into thinking that the beach twice weekly happy hour lifestyle doesnt have consequences for my anxiety condition. I havent yet fully learned to say NO to people and situations that are not in my best interest or that get in the way of my path. I stretch myself too thin. I take everything personally, Im overly sensitive but hide it from most everyone. All of this is holding me down.... so as I prepare to head out of town for a bit, I will spend that time reflecting on how I got this wound up and how to fix it. I know it probably seems weird that I share these stories about myself. I guess its because I feel that there are probably other people out there who suffer from anxiety like me and maybe my journey will help not only to inspire me but others too. Im done babbling now....:)
