Be strong Ash!! Glad you were able to get up and go to work. Every day we struggle. Just think about each task as they come. Don’t think about I need to go to work. Think about I need to get up…..check
Need to brush teeth….check
Make bed. Etc. find it easier to do it that way when I struggle.
I will be praying for you.

Think about it if you get out of bed, get dressed, brush your teeth l. Make the bed and eat breakfast. You accomplished 5 things. Which is way more then I did all day when I was drinking. :grin:

Just focus on not drinking today. Tomorrow say I’m not drinking today. Do not put too much pressure on a long goal. Just make today the goal. Before you know it new years will come.

Anxiety can be very debilitating, focus on something that normally has a positive effect on you and it will subside quicker

You don’t “have” a soul.
You are a soul!
You have a body.
Wear the world like a loose garment.

I know the feeling I deal with anxiety every day. I have to take an anxiety pill twice a day.
