Anxiety is a real thing. It's a real and very complex thing. However, in my family, anxiety is a big problem. Almost everyone in my family struggles with immense anxiety. I'm pretty sure anxiety has it's own spot at the dinner table.

I do not have anxiety as bad as some in my family do, but like everyone else, I do struggle with it. The best advice I have to deal with it is to remember that tomorrow is inevitable.

This advice works in both situations I previously mentioned. Let's say you that you can't wait for tomorrow to come.

I had an awful breakup, monumentally awful. Everyone kept telling me time was going to heal all wounds. I felt like time was going by way to slow. I felt like my days were lifetimes. I would lay around all day long thinking it would never end. Reality was though that it was going to end. Tomorrow came and time passed. There was no sense in me worrying things wouldn't get better. Things are naturally forced to get better. Tomorrow is inevitable.

Let's say you are dreading tomorrow.

I get my work scheduled and immediately start dreading all those doubles. I'm also dreading the first day of school. My anxiety shoots through the roof when I feel like I have no time for myself and I have to do things I don't want to do. I put on a pound of Bath and Body Works Stress Relief lotion and sniff away trying to calm myself down. The reality of it though is the day will pass. You will get through the day even if it sucks. I'm trying to tell myself this instead of spending countless hours worrying about something that hasn't happened yet.

Anxiety is tricky and it sure doesn't make sense. It is also different for everyone. No matter what though, it is important to remember that tomorrow is inevitable.
