Worry About Anxiety And Parenting Posted: 12-01-07 09:13am
This morning for no reason whatsoever, I
woke up having a full blown panic attack
at 5 am. I thought I would try to just
give it a little time and see if it wouold
go awaty with some even deep breating. at
6:30 my husband rolled over and asked me
if I was OK-said I sounded like an aazma
attack! I finally toook something at 6:45
and now its 7 am and my kids are up and I
just can't go down there. We are supposed
to get a x-mas tree today but I am afraid
that if I leave the house I will be
anxiuos. I am afraid to go to this x-mas
party later today too cause i won't be in
my house wehere its safeI can't talk to
them right now and i don't want my oldest
to know that mom is feeling a little crazy
right now. Why is this happening to me
all of a sudden again? I just can't deal
with it. Anyone out there today? Please
help.

Maybe something happened that is on your
mind that you are not really alright with.
I don't speak up alot when something is
said I don't agree with. I misplaced a
balance card for my manicures and asked
for a receipt for the last time I was
there and now. I reminded her I spent
fifty dollars previously when I brought my
daughter and she remembered. This visit
was costing seven dollars she said she
would give me a receipt for this visit and
forget the other. I said nothing but I
was brewing inside. I found the card and
my credit receipt for the fifty and gave
both to up date my card. Why don't I say
something? It took me two weeks to find
the card and believe me I thought about
her response more than a few times.
Have a nice quite cup of tea, Oh that's my
favorite thing to do in the morning
(smile). Do you feel overwhelmed? I
usually get up two and a half hours before
I go to work for the relaxing time so I
don't feel rushed and I can organize a few
things, make lunch, pay bills, take a
shower, check the email, feed the cats.
When I can't find things it is anoying and
flustrates me so most everything has it
place. I got that from my mom. When I am
organized that one less thing on my mind.
Also this is the Holiday Season a lot of
people get stress around this time of
year. Mom take care and I'll toast my
morning tea to our best of wishes.
Always have Hope for Today to be Better
than Yesterday...

I should have thanked you long ago for
your post, but please excuse me. Things
over the holidays went fairly well, but we
all started to feel a little out of sorts
since the schedules and routines were a
little off. I have had a few panic
attacks in the last moth or so, not too
bad except one last week which was
increadibley frightening. I think I am
also a person that strives on organization
which is funny since a liot of times I am
not very organized like I want to be.
Also, structure helps me and planning. I
got a new planner and have been trying to
outline things for myself so that i have
mroe structure in my day. It hink that s
helpiing a bit. I don't drink a lot of
tea-it tends to give me pretty bad
indigestion, but it does always sound
nice. I think maybe I need to do more
yoga.

Have you been treated for them at all? If
you don't want medication, there is
therapy that can help you!
