NEAT! A lady who regularly comes into the store I work at. She told me how she uses borax and some other stuff to make her own detergent. For the life of me I couldn’t remember the other ingredients. I am glad you posted about this.

Hey lady, I miss you too! I think it runs in families, both my mother and sister have dealt with it too. Mom with depression, sister with anxiety. Same meds to treat both, they are so similar. I’m starting to feel like I’d like to take something just to take the daily edge off. Plan on researching natural remedies again first. We’ll see:-). Hugs!!! T

I am late reading this but I can relate to your anxiety. I let things eat me up inside. Sometimes I feel like there is this anxiety parasite inside my head just going to town. I can’t stop picking every little thing apart in order to analyze it under my Anxiety Microscope and worry over every possible (albeit usually unlikely) if. My younger sister is really, really struggling with anxiety, though. I am wondering if mine is more of a depression whereas hers is more similar to what you are experiencing. I say that because she has displayed the same symptoms and has also been to the ER a few times, even in the middle of the night, because she was that worried over what was going on in her head…panic attacks, etc. It is a constant struggle as she goes back and forth between meds. She doesn’t want to “have” to be on them, yet the last time she went off, everything spiraled. I think it was because she just stopped them cold turkey. But, like you, she’s a beautiful, gifted, intelligent, driven person…she is really struggling with WHY she would be experiencing this problem. I think (although I am no expert) there is something inside those of us who are intelligent and driven that makes us feel like we are so super-capable that surely WE could figure everything out…and then we can’t, and that thought can be debilitating…almost paralyzing. Anyway…that’s just my 2 cents. I miss you! xo

Fadra, yes, an emotional basket case really, ha! I joke about it as much as possible, I do want to rid myself of much of it, but it’s a part of me. We should lay down more often:-). T

Interestingly enough, I was talking to a friend just yesterday and she made a comment that I hadn’t really thought about. She said that she doesn’t give humans enough credence when it comes to ultimately destroying the earth, it’s not possible, the earth will win. I agree, we ultimately can hurt it badly and that’s what I think about, the fact that I want healthy food options and beautiful parks for my children and their children. So it calmed me a bit. Interesting to think on anyway.

Jayla! I love peaches too. The family makes a trip to N. GA every summer to camp in Black Rock Mountain, it’s a tradition to stop in Peach County at Lane to eat peach ice cream:-).
Oh, and I’m not kidding about the deodorant, I love it! Give it a try, it’s cheap anyway, and natural!

Okay, so you’re a nut like me. See? We’re all on the island of misfits. I haven’t suffered severe anxiety in a few years and today, well, the breathing was so tough, I laid down and took a nap and felt so much better afterwards. At least I’m armed with defenses now!

I am not a fan of blueberries, but I can’t wait until peaches come in season. I LOVE peaches. :-)

Coconut oil in deodorant? I just picked up a jar to use in my hair and as a an ingredient in a lotion mixture. But I have never heard about using it to make your own deodorant. I may have to try that out. Tom’s of Maine does leave me feeling a little insecure about my underarms sometimes…

This is a tough one, because if one spends any amount of time thinking about all the injustices of the world, one is bound to have anxiety. It can get very depressing. Even if you focus on a single issue, the amount of work that needs to be done seems overwhelming. We certainly don’t want to reach the point where we only care about ourselves and we don’t try to solve any of the world’s problems, though – so it’s a delicate balance.
