Letting myself be happy

February 4th, 2017

After a long period of anxiety, I find it hard to be happy on the days that I don't have anxiety. It's like I have to retrain my brain that not having anxiety is normal. I have to consciously try not to prod and poke at my thoughts to work myself up into an anxious state again. I long for the day in which I can no longer remember what it feels like to be anxious. I know it will come some day soon.

@WhataDime713 You will get there, it just takes time. You will feel that way less and less. 😊

Being happy is so important and vital! heart Some ways I can be more happy is by doing things I love and just practicing coping mechanisms in general such as drawing, reading, and listening to music smiley
