I'm exhausted from doing nothing today {sigh} Feeling really drained and like I need to nap. And that lingering feeling of downheartedness seems to be haunting me.

Phobia Symptoms

Yup. Got 'em all. This is all too real in my life.

1. an immediate feeling of fear, anxiety, and panic when exposed to the source of the phobia or even thoughts of the source
2. an understanding that the fear is atypical and extreme but, at the same time, an inability to minimize it
3. a worsening of symptoms if the trigger isn’t removed
4. avoidance of the situation that causes the fear reaction
5. nausea, dizziness, trouble breathing, heart palpitations, or sweating when exposed to the trigger
