Working hard 😅
Taking on more work than usual. The main thing is not to have time for any overthinking)

A little glass of wine and evening quiet, but that's rare!)

I tried to work more and exercise. It only made things worse.
Blood pressure medication helped. And a session with a psychologist.

No way, I'm worried. I told my friends in a voice message

Books, movies, music, games, chats with loved ones, sleep. I used to walk a lot and swim, but now I'm getting old.

Pustovit Elena I actually walk a lot, I really love it. I used to run at the stadium, and because I was tired, I fell asleep faster when I went to bed and had fewer thoughts before sleep. But I can't always manage to run right now. Talking with loved ones helps me a lot. When you realize you're not alone. Thanks for the advice.

I tell myself that if I can change something, I'll try. If nothing depends on me, then I accept the outcome.

Suhareva Olga In my city, I only have two friends left; the others have moved away. One might reply right away if you text her, or maybe in a couple of days. The other just doesn't understand my anxiety and thinks it's silly, so I don't share that with them anymore.

Olga If I do this 🤣, then I'll develop a new anxiety about extra pounds 😁
Anyway, thanks for the advice 🙏

Olga I don't really recommend doing that, but
it does help to calm down.

Olga Wow, work is understandable, but sports usually help the opposite way, they say. That you get very tired, sleep well, and have fewer thoughts before bed.
I couldn't get into A/D, only my anxiety increased. I understand I need to endure it for two weeks, a month, but it was very difficult for me.

Valeriya Dikaya Thanks for the advice.
For me, silence is actually a reason to overthink things, including spiraling into anxious thoughts again.

Yulya Tokareva I totally agree. It's just that many people suggest staying calm and quiet. But for me, silence and being alone are actually a trigger for unnecessary overthinking.

Lyubanya Most likely yes, it's the only way out.
But I've noticed that just talking to loved ones helps me a lot, or I once saw a psychotherapist. Talking to loved ones doesn't help for long, of course, and I don't want to burden them with my thoughts every time. But a session with a psychotherapist helped me for a solid six months once! And that was without medication. They just helped me sort everything out, and somehow I felt so calm.
But it's an expensive pleasure. We don't have good therapists in my city for free, and if you want to pay, you have to go to another city, and the prices there are really "biting".

Anichka I get into this mode where I have to sort everything out, declutter, and scrub. I withdraw into myself for a bit. Then I come out of it and everything's okay.

Olga It's all very individual.
I couldn't sleep properly. My sleep was superficial, sometimes my leg would lift and fall sharply, or my arm. My calves cramped badly. Lots of nightmares 😖 But I was lucky with the blood pressure, I had no problems with it. On the contrary, I thought that since there was nothing wrong, it wasn't working.
I hope you find a solution to this problem🌹
