    When you are anxious, you are living in the future. When you are depressed, you are living in the past. When you are at peace, you are living in the present. - Lao Tzu

    And when I am anxious, what is it I am avoiding feeling? This is a helpful contemplation for me lately.

    Andy, this is a very good question. I believe that anxiety and fear are tightly connected in the brain. Anxiety feeds fear, fear feeds anxiety. By being anxious, we try to divert ourselves from the immediate events in our life that we are scared to face.

    Thx Tg

    I had to start taking some Tramadol so I can get my pain levels down to baseline ...I started to change my mindset and practicing indifference when my pain is bad ..

    Sometimes you need to take a step back before you take a step forward.
