I Have Anxiety

Today it’s so bad my stomach is upset.

Yesterday was move day; I’ve moved back in with Mr. Kat and we have agreed to try to work things out.

I felt anxious all the time when I lived alone. But now I feel anxious about us. What if we try, but we just can’t make it as a couple?

I brought my cat with me; and my cat and his cat do not get along and are being kept in separate rooms. Mr. Kat is stressed out about this, and so am I.

But today, seeing that I’m literally sick, he went to the store and got me some Pepto-Bismol and saltine crackers and ginger ale.

Have you been able to work things out? Are you still anxious?

@PhoenixPhail I ended up taking my cat to my aunt’s house. That seemed to be the least bad solution.

I think I’m probably going to have some degree of anxiety for the foreseeable future. Getting a job will be a big help with that. Last night I felt pretty good, but now it’s morning again where I live and I almost always have some anxiety in the mornings.

@SmartKat There ARE some processes you can do yourself to quiet your anxiety, without going to a therapist or taking meds. We can talk about that in PM, if you like. I don't want you to feel anxious if you don't have to.
