...See more Does anyone else have dental anxiety? I have had some bad experiences with dental work with fillings and can’t chew or floss it hurts too much. Now I am scared of dental work and never used to be. I never used to have issues with fillings. I am getting my wisdom teeth removed this week and I can’t sleep from the anxiety.

...See more Hey guys, I’ve really been struggling with illness anxiety and I’m struggling to get out of the continuous cycle of freaking out over every little thing that could be a symptom of something bad. It takes over my life. I have had a sore throat for almost 6 days and I can’t sleep because I keep worrying it’s going to turn into mono or that the pain will never go away. I don’t know how to end the fear.

Struggling
Relationship Stress / by therapeuticwriting01

...See more I recently got a new summer job as a caregiver and I need to make a lot of money in order to afford rent so I chose to work 40 hours a week, but unfortunately my boyfriend lives an hour and a half away and my job is 30 minutes in the opposite direction so I can’t just see him after work because I would be working most hours of the day. I only take one day of the week off and it’s the same day he is off work. The only problem is I want to be able to hangout with friends too and it’s stressful having to choose between them and him. I especially want to find time to hangout with my friends because I never get to see them and I am moving to my college town very soon. I’m afraid I will never get to see my friends from home again and that I will regret choosing my boyfriend over them.

Scared and Worried
Relationship Stress / by therapeuticwriting01

...See more I have been with my boyfriend for almost 2 years now and we are kind of long distance but not really. When we started dating I was going to a community college and still lived at home. He lived an hour and a half away from there. It was really hard to be able to find the time to either drive up and see him or have him drive to me. Then, I transferred schools to a 4 year college that was only 20 minutes away from the school he was going to. He decided not to live on campus anymore to save money after the first semester and so he was again an hour away from me, but he had to commute to go to class everyday and I would go home with him every weekend so I got to see him all the time and got to be kind of spoiled with time I got with him. Now that it is summer I am back at home and it is much harder to see him. He is also going to be going to a different school that is near where he lives instead of the one near my college town. I am moving to my college town soon, but he will no longer be commuting in the area and we will both have classes and jobs to worry about. I am scared that we will hardly ever get to see each other as we will still be an hour away from each other and sometimes I think it could be easier to just end the relationship, but the only thing I want is to be able to come home to him every single day. After every bad day I bawl my eyes out because all I want to do is hug him and cuddle him to sleep because it would make all of my worries go away but instead I have to come home to an empty bed and keep living without him.
