I'm so overwhelmed with everything
That's when you have to sit down, relax, and convince yourself that you are not going to let that anxiety get the better if you.

Run things through your brain, make a list of how to handle them, put them in order, write them down, make a list, as that can help, as after you have got them written down, you have a record of them that you can go back to at any time.

Once they are all down on paper, your brain won't have to keep track of them all, and that gives you the chance to move on, and think about other things, good luck.

Are you on meds for your anxiety?
any psych meds?
I was until July when I went cold turkey, now after talking to my T I have managed to book an appt at Dr (spent 2 hrs calling them to get through by which time all on the day appts gone) and will ask to be put back on at low dose to take the edge off. Appt is on Monday & now it's booked I'm thinking about what I need to say, worrying about introducing a new person into this, worrying they won't have my med records yet & will make me do some stupid depression test. I know my Dr at my last surgery said she was selective about what she wrote on record about why I have PTSD but I don't know what she wrote & whether it will be a help or hinderance (if they have my records)
I will write down bullet point & keep it short, maybe just hand it to her & say I can't verbalise it. Told my boss going back on meds, she said "just a low dose?" in a concerned way which is making me wonder, was I weird on them or slow? I can't remember. It was the max dose but it was what I needed to get by whilst I tried to shut the box back up. Now that box is about to open again And I'm terrified
