Good afternoon,
I came across this website while I was trawling for information about anxiety and how to deal with it. For some reason I've never really wanted to acknowledge that I suffer from anxiety, when I think about it I think this is the first time I've admitted to having it.
I have these constant feelings of dread, like something has gone or is about to wrong or I've made someone upset with me, its like I have this thing in my head that I have to make everyone around me happy and if they aren't its all my fault.
Since I've started taking prednisone it has gotten worse, but realistically its always been there, the medication just emphasised, it in hindsight I think I'm using the medication as an excuse to avoid addressing my anxiety.
I'm tossing up whether to get some CBT, or to try meditation and yoga, I'll probably go with the meditation since my brain seems to sabotage me when it comes to therapy.
Thankyou to anyone who has read this, I feel a bit emotional (not a good look when I'm at work lol) after writing this.
