Ever get tired of waiting?

[NaomiMcCartney]

I often get anxiety if I have to wait for someone or something for hours, days months, or weeks, etc... I simply try to keep my anxiety under control, but it can be very difficult. Part of the reason with me is because I have A.D.D. and I do not take anything for it. Unfortionatly it's hard to not feel impatient when my brain gets so anxious.:bigeyes3:

Naomi,

I worry about you. It sounds to me that you are experiencing depression. Have you thought about counseling?

Since you have often shared feelings like this in your posts, it makes me think you want others to be involved. That is a good thing because the last thing a person with depression needs is to be alone. Is there anybody or anything in 3D you find helpful? Seriously, I really do worry about you.

You know, it is so easy to be anxious in todays fast paced society. Do you live in a busy city environment (I am not familiar with upstate NY much?)? I think that can also contribute to feeling anxious, fun as the city can be. We need space and time to regroup. You know, also meditation can really help. It even lowers blood pressure! I'm not soliciting, but each religion I think has some sort of meditation groups in churches and things? I have good info on learning to meditate at home if you ever want to PM me!

Another nice thing is to listen to soothing music. That makes a big difference!
((((hugs!))))

Right you are, HC! That has always been my medicine of choice whenever I've felt anxious or stressed out. In fact, as I've mentioned numerous times before, I often turn to George's music as a remedy and 99.9% of the time it works! Also, I might suggest writing out all your fears, angers and aggressions down in a diary or a journal. I would often use that as an outlet to get it all out--while listening to some George. :smile1:

Not if she's anywhere near us. Where we're at, it's much like a country setting. And it's awesome and just downright beautiful here in the Hudson Valley! :teeth1:

And it's awesome and just downright beautiful here in the Hudson Valley! :teeth1: Actually where I live now is in a little town called Homer NY. I use to live in Cortland NY which is only about 2 miles away. Cortland is a small small city. It also is a county which Cortland, Homer, McGraw and a few other small areas are a part of it. There is country sides outside the town area of Homer, and same with the city of Cortland. Cortland and Homer don't have a lot to offer, meaning there isn't enough things happening around here. Cortland for example has mostly bars! It's still a beautiful area though. Once in awhile I like to go see local artists play out in this coffee shop in downtown Cortland called The Blue Frog. That's only one Thursdays though. Every thursday they have a band or some solo artist. I still find it hard to be able to go every Thursday with homework, moving in, and nobody to go with that is willing to tag along.

As for everything else everyone has been saying, I was seeing a counclor, but with the moving and everything, I haven't had the time to call her to make an appointment. Before I moved, I called her to make an appointment to see her more than once, but she never returned my call.

*sigh* And of course I'm suffering from some sort of depression. I lost my brother over a year ago so it's only natural. I also had a pretty bad child hood that didn't help me much either. The only thing that makes me feel any sort of happiness is my boyfriend Lester. However there are times he lets little things get to him too much. He too lost his brother 6 years ago, and I feel he should see someone too but he seems afraid to even try.

I think some people get afraid to feel better so they don't even try. I'm trying to help just as he's trying to help me. We love each other, and love is what helps heal the soul.
