Hey Pam...you still up?...If not...Good Morning!!!
Just logged on...long work day for me, but productive!
I had a thought for you:
I can TOTALLY relate to the NEED to move when agitated. There were a few times when my anxiety was REAL bad and I had to PACE...I mean around and around the house (good thing we have one of those living room, hallway, hallway, kitchen, dining room, living room circuits...it's a little frightening when it happens...freaked CJ out for sure.
Here's my suggestion:
Have you heard of a moving meditation? It's where you MOVE, but stay exquisitely aware of the mechanics of each movement, slow them down, focus on the tendons and muscles moving, the textures, the pressure, the air flowing around your limbs...
It takes you into the NOW...without having to sit still.
And hon, worry not, David is not trying to poisen us against you...what he shares only helps to flesh out the picture and gives us even MORE help in responding to you.
