Lately I've been feeling overwhelmed with life. Work has me feeling crazy and anxiety attacks are happening more and more. I feel like in my personal life that I can't do anything right with anyone. I'm on medication which does help but the anxiety is just too much right now. Does anyone have any advice?

Hello,

Work can get overwhelming. So, I hear what you're saying. Take a step back and give yourself grace.

You mentioned that you're on medication for anxiety, but need a bit more help. Have you explored breathing exercises? They help deepening your breathing and help to relax and reduce your stress response! I feel they help me when I am overwhelmed. It helps to take advantage of the breathing exercises that are on here as well:)💛💫

Thank you so much! I took today off of work to decompress and regroup. I'm hoping that helps some. Life in general has been so much lately and I just need to focus.

Hello! It's totally okay that you feel this way. Works can be stressful, overwhelming. And you feeling like you're missing out is also okay.


While I would like to say, you can do this, You're already doing great, just you need to know that You're doing okay, I would also want to say, if you think you want to talk to someone, you can. You can get help if you want to, but at the same time, You're doing so much good. You can do this!
