Feels like a bit of an anxiety relapse...

What else is going on in your life hun? Are you taking time for yourself and relaxing? I've been so much better (anxiety wise) since I started doing actual relaxation. Hope it sorts itself for you soon xx

I think maybe you're feeling anxious because you are worried now everything is going well, that it will go back to the way it was before? I know with me I still have anxiety about certain things to do with my baby like when I take him out in public, as when he was smaller he used to scream and scream and I didn't know how to pacify him. These days he is super happy and if he does get upset I know what to do but I still can't shake that feeling of anxiety. I read some of your posts in the past about DS's sleeping problems and I can totally understand why you might feel anxious about going back there now that you have experienced it being better.

Have you had any counselling? I have found counselling has helped me to figure out where my anxious feelings come from in the past and that helps me to address them now, ie by telling myself Im being silly and reminding myself of how things are now, not how they were. My counsellor said to me that maybe I just need to spend some time just getting over and coming to terms with the things that happened in the early days... I almost need to grieve over it in away, like how crappy and hard it was, so that I can move on.. if that makes sense.

I could have just psychoanalysed you and been totally wrong but when my anxiety flares up I find it's usually more to do with a past situation/fear of something that happened before happening again than the present one. I guess anxiety is kind of something you live with and deal with and keep going each day.... and recognise when it's happening and deal with your fears head on. Try to figure out what you're worried about and tackle it if that makes sense. My counsellor taught me to write down the fear, then think is this realistic? What is more likely to happen than that? To give you some perspective.

I hope that helps in some way.
