Anxiety

I'm so anxious all the time but about nothing. It's ridiculous but can't stop the constant worryIts causing me a lot of physical issues especially with my stomach. My family say stop worrying and keep busy but it's not that simple but no one understands. I've been trying new hobbies and it helps but I still worry about everything.

  • I’m sorry you feel this way, anxiety and autism seem to go ‘hand in glove’ Sunday nights can be worse as there is the worry of the week ahead. It’s very easy for people to say, ‘don’t worry’. It doesn’t help, I use sleepy tea and a bath with cbd extract. I also use noise reduction earphones and listen to an audiobook until I sleep. I have been listening to Elle Mcnicolls books, they are full of neurodivergent characters and are written for younger people, I’m ancient and still found them brilliant. The BBC are making a series from her first book called, ‘ Like a Spark’ hope you enjoy her books, Elle is also autistic.

  • I think your right it's always worse before the start of the week. I havent tried anything like an audi book but I will soon. I have bad eyes solar retinopathy cause so I don't do much reading. 

  • I use audiobooks because I’m dyslexic and can’t process a paragraph, I can read a paragraph 5 times and nothing goes in, honestly give the audiobooks a go. They also block the outside world out.
