I Have Anxiety

I think so much bad stuff has happened in the past three or four years that it did something to my mind. I’m not really OK anymore.

I lost my mom, I lost my job...I could have lost my relationship, and I had to find another home for my cat. (Luckily, he is with my aunt. That was something to be thankful for.) I’m scared to death of losing anything else. I wonder if I’ll ever feel safe again.

I'm so sorry that you've lost so much and have been through so much. I can certainly understand not feeling okay after all that. I think the fact that you've kept it together as well as you have is a testament to your strength.

I've been realizing, more and more, just how scary life can be. But I've also had a few nice surprises too, and I hope that you will also. I don't know if we can ever really be safe, but I know that there is still some good in the world. I hope that some more good things will come your way, and that you won't have to experience any more losses for a long time.

And I'm glad that your cat is okay.
