I definitley agree. I get SO much more anxious if there are other stresses in my life. I think that is why Christmas isn't as fun for me as it used to be. I'm stressed & then my emet kicks in with much more force.
My therapist has been working with me to realize when there is a "hidden" stress that is causing my emet. And, in realizing it, I'm trying to remember that I'm not "in danger" as much as my emet wants me to believe. I haven't perfected that mind manipulation yet, but it helps some. I try to stop those thoughts before they get to a full boil of panic.
