I know what that feeling is like. I’ve struggled with anxiety of many years. Something that helped me over the years to separate my identity from the anxiety. For instance, instead of saying I’m anxious, acknowledge you are having anxious thoughts. Our gut level reaction is something we can’t always control. How we react to them is something we can. Try it out. It’s helped me separate my own pervasive thoughts as thoughts, rather than as my identity. It also allows you be more objective and not create even more stories that often fuel that anxiety. Take care and know you aren’t the only one out there with those thoughts! All the best 🙂
