Day: 26th April, 2013

My own anxiety

26th April, 2013 by Overocea Leave a Comment

I did something today that made me quite anxious. Anxiety is not something I feel very often but it is something many people I’ve been talking to recently suffer from.. so for empathy’s sake I thought I’d take careful note of what it was like.

  • The most immediate sensation was a trembling tenseness in my stomach and chest, a buzzing and a tightness. Distinctly uncomfortable.
  • A fuzziness in my head, which gave my vision a kind of noisy, blurry quality also, approaching inward from the edges.
  • Clammy hands, increased heart-rate and body temperature, and a tension in my muscles, especially my shoulders and arms.
  • Decreased fine motor control, in that I had far more clumsy than usual hand and finger movements.

Sarah messaged me today asking if I was okay. I replied “DID MUMM TELL YOU I WAS DEPRESSED UGH.” I knew she’d worry. I’m not depressed!

What is this mess

O hey, hi my darling. I’m overocea & this is my journal. I’ve vowed to note my everyday inconsequence indefinitely, so that I can read it when I’m 80. I expect it to be hideously boring to anyone except an 80year old me.
