be honest:
Is your stress level through the roof?
You spend your days running from one thing to another, tackling your to do list, and it never ends. You have to keep all the balls in the air and can’t let a single one drop. You’re keeping the world turning at work, at home, and in your relationships. You don’t have time to pause, catch your breath or even ask yourself: How did we get here?
At this point the feelings of crushing stress are just a normal part of life. You know that perfectionism is probably not helping anything. You do your best to avoid the feelings of failure that are swirling around you or the fact that you are constantly apologizing for all the ways things could have gone better. When your supervisor gives you feedback that you are doing a good job, you still feel like you’re never doing enough.
At night, when things slow down, the feelings of shame set in. You realize just how overwhelmed you actually are. You beat yourself up for not being able to balance it all. The voice inside says you’re failing and you’ll never live up to people's expectations. You feel like you’re drowning and want so desperately to be “good enough” but you don’t even know how you could do more. You’re so tired. You feel like you can't stop trying but it also feels like you can’t move a muscle. It’s paralyzing to be at odds with yourself and you’re ready for relief!

Stress is a normal human experience and it can actually be very helpful when it happens occasionally, giving you a boost of adrenaline to get through a challenging moment. Anxiety on the other hand, is a feeling of worry, dread, or discomfort and it can happen at any time, and instead of helping you deal with a challenge, it can make life much harder to handle. Many people feel anxiety about normal and safe situations. When anxiety starts to creep into more and more areas of life, therapy can help so you can feel more peace, ease, and relaxation.

Yes, they actually occur together in many people. You see it when someone is very anxious and overworking themselves or pushing too hard for too long, and then they begin to feel exhausted and ineffective - to the point where they begin to feel hopeless, powerless; and do not have a desire to get out of bed. After some time, this can actually trigger another bout of anxiety and the cycle continues.
