Too Much To Ask? |

Today, right now, I race inside, my heart pounding vibrating thoughts placing fear in front of me. The confidence lost, scare tactics on the rise, news becoming unbearable to hear. Anxiety builds, eyes hold back tears, knowing that it will all become worse before it gets better. If only it was one step to climb instead of so many. If only step by step I could erase the fears that are invading me tonight. No phone calls, no visitors in want. Sitting alone, waiting for the day to pass, hoping tomorrow the shadows will stay hidden, allowing my heart to slow its beat and my thoughts to unwind and see the light of morning. I wait for the day, the one that returns me to myself, when I was proud and happy and could function without aid. Is that really too much to ask? M *sorry I am just having an anxiety attack* "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less."

Thanks and C, I am sort of glued here right now to this chair and can't move...hard to explain. I probably should have not listened to the news a bit ago. I was doing fine until they brought up about the President and war and the other countries still wanting to wait...It's funny but I sort of feel guilty almost like my friends hate me...as if I am the U.S. and the other countries are my friends who are going against me. and then listening to the fact of gas prices going up even more if there is a war and the price of home heating. My gas bill was over $500.00 for 2 months and I never even felt warm, and that has nothing to do with the electric bills... Another snow storm to hit tonight. I just got finished shoveling what was left from 16 days ago...thought that use of my own energy and the sunshine outside would help. So I sat down here for a moment ... and now I can't move. |

hmmm...I've felt that way about many different things myself lately, but the fear passes. When you look far into the future, this will all be a memory. Meanwhile, talking to people you trust and love helps considerably. HUGGLES :-) |

I agree, not too much to ask. It appears a painful write, but necessary. I hope all is well with you. ![]() |

Never been prone to much anxiety myself but for a minute there you made me feel something of what it must be like. Made me want to give you a hug until it passed... |
