Every morning I still wake up intensely anxious. I don't know why. My dreams are often weird, but usually they haven't been nightmares or about my real life at all... It's like I've conditioned myself to be anxious all the time, though my anxiety medication helps. But I don't want to have to take Klonopin every morning forever. I used to rarely need it. Buspar worries me less as it's non-addictive and generally more subtle. I'm really trying hard to work on my thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Later in the day I'm usually doing better unless I get triggered by something. I think this morning my anxiety was made worse because I read a chapter on overthinking and ruminating on one's problems in my happiness book:P That chapter really applied to me, but it brought up a lot of bad memories that I do tend to ruminate on. I have to get better at distracting myself. Breathing exercises and such don't work for me. At least I'm starting to feel better now... I have to learn how to stop my ruminations and control my mind better.
