time to play "are things actually hectic" or "is my brain just trying to make things this way?". I get the sense life is only as hard as you make it, trouble with my anxiety is it LIKES things hard. twists things into problems, forces me to take positions on things. I grew up where everything is a fight, so it tries to make everything a fight. And every now and then I need to stop breath and try untwist the knot my brain has tied itself into,
Oh mate. My brain does the exact same thing. I grew up in a loving but stressful environment, and it feels like I'm still, constantly, worrying about what can go wrong and managing my emotions/actions/thoughts to avoid potential conflicts.
I just wanted to say, you're not alone. You can get through this too. Deep breaths help me.
