Is there a worst case scenario??
Posted , 5 users are following.
so many create these "anxiety rules" to protect themselves against their definition of a worst case scenario. Im really curious to know how leading a self inflicted caged in life filled with panic attacks and fear is more acceptable. Maybe thats for the fear of getting help or medicines if you cant even function from the disorder. Which happens to some people.
is there a way maybe to help each other..what is the worst case scenario anyway?
at some point isnt this it!? Because at some level it isnt living at all. Its barely surviving so whats worse? What? Then living each moment in fear of the next? Waing for the pretend heart attack or brain tumor to engulf you? Fainting? You get up? Dieing..honestly are you even living?
Im trying to really understand this. I have ailments so i differ i guess in some ways but i without doubt understand fear and anxiety and panic attacks. Im just very confused in what a person even feels is a worst case scenario that has formed a thick, horrid wall between stuck and moving forward to challange this all. The is a rotten disorder that flourishes in fear.
and i know its a disorder. Thats not the point. Maybe if people all write down their actual worst case scenario everyone can help them and each other to dismantle the thought.
You So to take one step forward.
Almost like forum cbt?
just help each other. So..what is the worst case scenario anyway? Cause i feel like living in fear of fears of fear is basically it. So its only "up" from there.

Not allowed honey.
You can send a PM and get someone's email address if they wish to give it to you. But be careful. Even on this site there will be trolls pretending to be NICE.

I also forgot to mention! In NYC you guys should go to magnolia bakery its so so good! There cupcakes are bomb! ?? Also china town has amazing food! And bubble tea. The store i go to is called "ViVi Bubbletea" and its amazeballs.
Besides NYC there are other places to visit to ( for those of you from the UK ) California is beautiful! They have sausalito and los angeles! Also the area where my aunt lives which is San Clemente! In california they also have an amazing burger plac called In N Out burger and its delicious! Also krispy kreme! The grand canyon in Arizona is nice too. I went there during my 7th grade summer.

Okay, my Worst-Case Scenario is honestly being murdered by a nut.
Now the truth is out.
I know it is extremely unlikely but after the 'Man on the Bridge' debacle I am even more careful.
Hey, I work night shifts, ok, which means I leave my home at night, when it's dark. i only have to walk ten yards to my car but I always check in with my husband so he knows I made it.
Is that OTT?
No. My poor husband was brutally assaulted by three young males, for no reason, and left, bleeding, in an alleyway 100 yards from our home.
I woke up at three a.m. and realised he wasn't back. Then I saw all my voice mails..........("I need help......." etc)
But I didn't know where he was and he sounded like he could hardly speak.........then I got a call from a friend.
My husband had managed to get to HIS house.
I had his friend bring my husband home.
His friend is mad. He should have called an ambulance.
When I saw my husband I was glad I was a nurse. I sat him down, checked his vitals and called an ambulance, in the space of twenty seconds.
Wow. He had 65 fractures of the small bones aroound his eyes.
Luckily, they only kicked him on the face, so although the hospital did a CT scan, he had no brain injuries. But he needed 16 sutures (stitches) to a wound under his eye.
Ugh. When we finally left, a young nurse rushed up to me.
Mrs. X! You can't take him in a taxi! Look at his shirt! Here.....have a theatre top for him..........
She was right. The taxi driver was shocked at his FACE so I don't think he would have survived the blood-stained shirt!
And this is not classed as a high-crime area.
This is the edge of London. NOWHERE is safe in the dark.

You're right. I actually chose that shift because it suits me best and i adore my patient.
He doesn't live far from my home and I'm back home by 8 a.m.
I have always loved the night shift. No meals to cook, no phone calls, no visitors, just sleep. Maybe I got that from when I was a midwife. I don't know.

Although I didn't get any sleep at night when I was a midwife, of course. That would have been terrible - a woman in labout in her own home and me fast asleep, ignoring her.....no, I didn't do that.
