I woke up with crippling anxiety.

The amount of heartbreak happening hourly is too much for my empathic soul.

Gotta take a break for today and hope I can handle tomorrow’s headlines.

Get out of the house. Take a few deep breaths. If it's not too cold where you are, take off your shoes and stand on the grass. Let the inner energy of the earth fill your body. Take a walk. ❤️

Sometimes you have to draw the curtain on the incoming news. Filter out the noise, acknowledge the facts, and let the rest go. Focus on something you enjoy, give yourself some time to do what gives you peace. Bad stuff is always happening, but you don't have to let it in.

I was up all night for the same reason. Take a deep breath, enjoy the sunrise, and focus on the little things you can do now.

I broke down crying today. I have several severe mental health issues that make daily living a struggle. All this stuff happening and seeing all the hurt and suffering is just making it all worse. Trying to ignore it just makes my anxiety worse

We empaths must protect ourselves....As soon as you wake, ground yourself with the earth...bring up her power and shield yourself. You have that power. I must practice this daily.

Hope you’re okay🙏

Does that ever resonate.

minutello1.bsky.social•1 day ago

I understand...there's only so much I can take too.

mmmarvalous.bsky.social•1 day ago

Hugs friend… you aren’t alone…
Take a break and more importantly, give yourself one. No one can exist on high alert all the time. Empathy matters… just remember you need it too. 🥰

Observe, don’t absorb

Hang in there! Yes, what is happening is heartbreaking. But it is also causing billions of caring people around the world to unite to take control of what is happening, to build our own version of the future. I think of it this way: our collective anxiety is building our collective determination!

I love blue sky but, for periods of time ignorance is bliss and no news is good news. When we feel the weight of what is happening, we all need to disconnect and just breath.

manzanarez55robin.bsky.social•21 hours ago

It gets easier to take, but then
it's sorta desensitizing.

rantingren.bsky.social•13 hours ago

Take a break, we all need it. But come back into this fight...we need all hands on deck. Have a great, peaceful, relaxing day. I'll stand in for you today!! I might need a break tomorrow...

bethie827.bsky.social•13 hours ago

I feel that deeply, MommaT. I've taken days off to regroup and rebound, too. Self care is vital to empaths in good times, and it's critical now. Go do something that pleases your soul, and don't feel guilty about it. Better a short term break than a longer term breakdown cos you pushed too hard. 🥰🥰🥰

I feel the same.
When it overcomes me, I just WALK. And WALK.
And say everything I need to get out of my system.
Doesn't actually FIX anything.
But I haven't had a stroke. YET.
Holler at me if you need a buddy. I'm here. 😘

Every night when I lay down in bed, almost like clockwork, I get a huge wave of anxiety that washes over me. I’m finally alone w my mind, w nothing to distract me and it hits like a ton of bricks. Words can’t express how painful this is for those w highly tuned empathy.

snapdragon16.bsky.social•1 day ago

Ditto except mine keeps me up at night. It’s becoming overwhelming - but remember- that’s the point.

pretends2.bsky.social•21 hours ago

Couple nights ago I went to bed so anxious and afraid then dreamt a huge wild wolf-like thing was in my house trying rip me to shreds and I was fending it off with a bar stool.

Best wishes, I understand.

Oh sorry you’re going through it, I usually check out and watch the Hallmark Channel, it’s my comfort food.🙏

It’s way too much, I’m feeling the same, this place has become really dark.

tweetmommybop.bsky.social•1 day ago

Super dark. Ugh

listentothyself.bsky.social•1 day ago

Take care of yourself.
It's brutal out there.

tjquk.bsky.social•1 day ago

Totally get where you are coming from. I keep trying to draw to zone out, but I can't even do that.... I think it is the feeling that there is nothing we can do about the idiots ruling our countries right now. You aren't alone, I know that isn't really helpful, but lots of us feel exactly like you.

1dercat.bsky.social•22 hours ago

Same. I feel their fears. The heartbreak and uncertainty. The evil is everywhere.
