Hangover after anxiety exposure
Hey All
I'm on my recovery journey from depression and anxiety was off work for a couple of months and have started to get back into it. Of course with that comes anxiety and I am really trying to follow the process of exposure to my triggers which unfortunately was basically everything related to work but have slowly been adjusting.
I did a big exposure last week which was a presentation to a preety big audience let's say 30-40 people over zoom.
I had the huge adrenaline rush and come down afterwards which I was expecting. However in the week following I have had increased generalized anxiety and had a really rough day yesterday in terms of spiraling thoughts. Today doing a bit better have been really trying to keep doing despite how im feeling.
Just wanted to see if anyone had similar experiences in there recovery journey
