Anxious

December 14th, 2016

So after counseling this morning I went to the dr's office to do my yearly physical for work and my blood pressure was 156/100 ughhhh. I didn't realize it went up that much when I was anxious, overwhelmed. Counseling is still the assesment part right now we haven't even gotten into the work of the CPT therapy. Makes me more anxious about doing counseling now?

Hey I moved your thread to a section where you can get more support. I am sorry to hear that your blood pressure is so high. That can definitely be frustrating, and counseling can be nerve wrackig. <3

I hope more people here respond with their experiences !

Maybe something in your life? Has there been anything that has been unexpected for you lately? Or something that causes undue stress?

@HalliwellSister Counseling has been the only change over the past 4 months I have seen 3 different counselors. The session today was just the assesment part with the new counselor.

@HalliwellSister, yeah very frustrating to keep starting over.

@HalliwellSister And I just got more news that is not helping my anxiety. I work as a part-time weekend (fri-sun) mobile x-ray tech. one of my co-workers called and said our lead tech told her there is something big coming with our company the first of the year, something that will affect all of us but he couldn't say what it was. Why tell your co-workers anything like that and put them into worrying???

oh that definitely would put me into a worry. I am sorry that they said that. If they cant tell you what then they shouldn't have told you!

@HalliwellSister exactaly, the lead tech should not have even mentioned it to our co-worker. She is going to try to talk to him tonight and see if he will tell her if it is good or bad?

Hmm yeah it seems like a lot of drama. I hope that the coworker is able to get something out of that talk so you guys can be less anxious about it!
