    Certain pairings on here give me anxiety

    People pair up here? UNCLEAN!

    I'm not referring to a hook up. More like a conspiring to humiliate and embarrass others.

    ohh yes I understand now.... I am still allowed to be concerned for your well being however. My mom said I could.

    It’s true. I’m her mom and I said she could.

    Merge lanes. Holy *kitten*. I hear Kenny Loggins "Danger Zone" every time I have to get on one.

    Like, is this *kitten* gonna let me in? :cold_sweat:

    I have mentioned it on here before but when I am full of anxiety and feeling very stress it often manifests itself in my dreams. I always dream that I am in high school again and I can't remember my locker combination, or I am at school and I suddenly realize I have a final right now in a class I forgot to go to all year, or the school was remodeled and I can't find a map.

    Social situations give me major anxiety.

    Being late.

    Driving in new cities.

    Just to name a few.

    Any emails from IT dept to my boss. I always think they're going to tell her all the time I spend on here.

    Relate-able.
    Just this morning I passed the main IT guy in the parking garage and I could have sworn he looked at me a little too long.

    Being late gives me some serious anxiety, also large crowds, I can't do concerts etc, can do sporting events though strangely enough.

    Honestly, sometimes not being anxious makes me anxious.

    I listed every day things that give me mild anxiety.

    But there have been times in my life I've been triggered by seemingly nothing and I will have a complete melt down. Like it doesn't even make rational sense, but there's no denying I'm in full panic mode. That isn't fun. And I'm glad that those episodes are fewer and farther between these days.
