Thanks for the messages and the advices. I'm doing "okayish"; started practicing yoga, does a ton of good, and still practicing zazen, trying to not get trapped by my fears. Back to the breathe and the posture, again and again. I also saw some important things i think. I now understand that when i hate feeling anxious, it's myself that i hate ; i spend too much time fighting ! The part of me that is anxious does not need to be hated, it needs to be treated gently and with care. I'm beginning to see that in fact i'm not very nice with my emotions and myself, and that is some stuff i need to work on.
Gassho,
Uggy,
Sat today
Glad to hear that you're doing better. When I was younger, I often had bouts of anxiety. With practice, realizing that my thoughts are part of me but do not make up the entirety of what "I am" helped. A hand is part of your body but your body isn't just the hand. It's the natural function of thoughts to drift into view and drift away like clouds. We must remember not to cling to them and obsess.
I'm not expert or doctor but it is what has helped me in the past

Being with nature, exercise and alone time are great ways to reconnect with your true self. Anxiety is like a split in your being, a separation dis-ease. The awe and wonder of nature is a great unifier. You don’t have to do anything or be anything. Forget everything the society has taught you and just relax , let go and just enjoy your beingness
🙏💜
Sat lah
Yeah, but sometimes it is hard to enjoy your beingness, when it seems all your being sends you only fear...
Yet, sometimes i have this deep feeling of being glad to be able to feel like crap. I don't know, it's really strange ; but sometimes i'm like "okay, you really feel like shit, confused, not knowing what to do, who you are, feeling lonely and stuck in your feelings, a bit desperate... What a great luck and experience to be alive and be able to feel all this !"
