Birthday Blue's.

[Anxious Abi]

It's my 23rd birthday today, and i'm feeling quite low, can't seem to stop my mind. My birthday only ever seems to serve as a reminder that I still haven't gained control of my life, I feel like a failure all the time, more so today. I don't want to be this way forever.

Happy Birthday, Abi! You've just reached the point in coping with anxiety where you're ready to try something else. Try something new today, and give yourself some positive information to appreciate. Best wishes!

Thank you for all the birthday wishes, I really appreciate it :).
My day hasn't been so bad, although sometimes I just wish I could be less anxious and awkward all the time, maybe I could have enjoyed a meal out, or had a party, or even had a load to drink like most people my age. I can't drink because of my medication and even if I could there's no way I could handle being around people. I know I have to stop thinking i'm a failure, I just feel stuck, I want to break free of my mental health and everything that comes with it. I'm tired all the time, so tired of thinking, all I want to do is sleep, but when I close my eyes my mind starts. You all know how it goes.
Anyway, I have managed to get through the day, I even went out of the house! I did get anxious, it brought on a headache and I wanted to come home, but I didn't, I stuck with it. Who knows I might have a glorious nights sleep, need to stay positive.
