I'm trying to find good ideas for stress relief while TTC. The holidays and work have been stressful for me plus a few things popping up like hubby's $600 car repair now our dryer is messed up. We have been thru so much worse, so I know it could be way worse! We are healthy and everyone in our family is at the moment, so I am very thankful for our blessings and truly grateful in that respect. I'm still an anxious person and I have generalized anxiety disorder. 

Literally, I think of incredibly extreme circumstances and crazy things quite often, sometimes it's fine for months but other times it gets bad. I try to not let it rule my life. I think it's been worse lately bc I have been having a lot of nightmares also, but I wake up and tell myself it's not real kinda like I do when I'm thinking about crazy things that will probably never even happen. 😒😑 

I've been trying to adapt the mantra that if I cannot control it then I shouldn't worry about it. I feel like this is fairly common for women in general and for those of us in their 20s and  30s, since basically every single friend of mine also has it. I just get stressed and anxious about things easily. I have been like this since I was a little kid.
