I've come to the conclusion I am a control freak, with my life and those who are in it.
 
Not that I need to control others, I just need to control my life the way I god damn well want to.
 
Of late that hasn't been happening and of course, the result is panic attacks, real doozies.
 
Last night I had a huge cry, of course us women know that crying releases tension and gives our silly minds a break from overthinking shit.
 
Feeling better now I am left with a sense of ' let it go Joe and move on' from what? well feeling the need to be in control, feeling the need to mange everything, obviously one can only do so much in life, sometimes things are beyond our control, so in times like those I need to remember to let it go and go outside, count the clouds in the sky, watch the birdies dance on the wing and take a deep breath.
 
AND also be a little crazy, silly, let the child come out to play.  Today is Friday, today I am making an effort to see (perspectively) the joy in life.
 
Ohh yeh and I'm also going to finish something I started the beginning fo this week.  Nothing beats closing a folder and saying to yourself "job well done girl"

    I'm a control freak too.  It's really annoying.  Unfortunately all you can do after having the anxiety attack is accept that there are things out of your control.  A lesson I keep having to learn.

    Having struggled with control issues most of my life, I can understand your feelings. Keep watching the birds and the clouds and cry when you need to. I hope that the universe sees it your way very soon!

    Yup, I fall right on this wagon with ya Lu.  It sucks because on the one hand, I know things can't always go my way, then on the other hand, when they do I'm being a controlling snit, and then on that other hand over there ... I KNOW I'm being that way, but I'm torn between having things go my way, or having people thinking I'm just a controlling nag.  *sigh*   And so the anxiety continues...

    Thanks everyone, funny thing is that the universe is still pushing the fuck out of my patience right now, so as it stands I guess I'm kind of in a stale mate.... grrrrr

    I never thought about myself as a control until now because I feel if I know what I want and in order to get what you want, you have to have control of that.

    True Mrs B but you also need to maintain the confidence in yourself, my confidence is a little battered at the moment.
