Anxiety attacks and other candy coated things....

[Cherrysweetdeal]

Alright so its almost 6 in the morning and I only got about 3 or 4 hours of sleep before waking up and being totally awake due to my anxiety about this goddamn road test this morning.

Having failed three times, I keep telling myself that I can do this... Everyone seems to say, "You're a good driver you'll do fine". So how is it that I keep doing worse everytime I go and I just end up giving sgi more fucking money. It's as if they almost fail you for the money..... I just want my license to make life easier and everytime I fail this stupid piece of shit test I wanna rip myself apart for not being able to do something so stupid and simple.....

I have to go see if I can maybe cry myself asleep for another few hours.... Otherwise I'll be fucked over for the day.

Anxiety. The gift that just keeps giving.

Good luck, and I hope you get some good rest.

How did it go cherry?

Wooo!!

Alright good news.... After two days of not being able to find my cellphone, I got that back and I passed the drivers thing well.

So that anxiety attack that happened this morning is not much of a worry anymore. Even the issues with the stereo that we had the past couple weeks are better.

Congrats on passing the test! I know that failling can be an emotional killer for folks who do fine actually driving but who get so nervous with anxiety during the test that they screw up simple things that they know how to do properly.

And yes, having that driver's license for an ID does make things a bit easier. Way to go!

You should have seen the panic attack I had when I wrecked my car yesterday. My Daddy doesn't understand anxiety very well, so I've described it as a scale of 1-10, with 2 or 3 being where I usually lived on a daily basis, and if I'm having an actual attack I can say "I'm at a 7" or something to convey where my head is at. Well, when I wrecked my car yesterday I think I was at about 14 or so. Aaaaaaack.

I've been living at 3-4 on a daily basis for several months, though. Fortunately I have an appointment with my doctor on Friday morning, and I plan to make this one of the things I mention.
