also it helps to always be happy with what you can do. Thankful for what you did do etc..
I used to say all the time i did my best it might not be good enough but it was my best and its all i got today to give to thats that.

I know that feeling of waiting for the other shoe to drop.
When things in my life started getting good, I couldn't handle it because I was so used to chaos. It made me jumpy and always looking over my shoulder, waiting for the next disaster to come along, and sometimes the tension of that was so bad, I'd unconsciously create something, because that is what I knew.
I had to catch myself thinking like that and actively work to stop it. In time, I began to accept that life really could be good and I didn't need to be so vigilant. I learned that I was able to deal with things if and when they came up and didn't have to be anticipating them.

Also eating less and healthier is making me feel more anxious than I can handle. I have no comfort food. After yesterday I was a basket case and couldn't sleep at all and woke up horrible anxious and depressed today. I have a lot hanging over my head that I won't go into but it is real and it would scare anyone.

Sleepie,
Whatever it is, I have no doubt you have the strength to endure. Because that's what you do. Is it really important that you be entirely restricting your diet right now? Could I maybe get you a grilled cheese sandwich?
