Not feeling too great

Hello. I am really struggling today. The PIP form really took it out of me and now the waiting for the assessment is making me feel so anxious. I have tried to do some arts and crafts but my mind cannot concentrate. Also my fibro has been really bad so sitting at my desk is so difficult. I am having so much trouble relaxing :(

    Hi @sunshine23 sorry you can't relax nothing worse. It's normal to feel anxious over pip. Just the waiting game now. 
     I find classical music helps me. What and crafts did you do. I need to do some art, not done any for awhile.

    Hello @sunshine23

    I'm sorry to hear the waiting has made you anxious. I'd love to see your crafts and sure the community would too :) We post them in our Kaleidoscope gallery

    Hi @Sandy_123 and @Hannah_Scope, thank you for your support. I used to do some diamond art (where you stick little gems onto a sticky sheet with a print on it - sorry have not explained that well!) and I was doing some embroidery but my joints and anxiety make it hard to concentrate. I will definitely put a pic up once I have finished it. 

    Thank you for the suggestion of classical music, I have been listening to some and it is so calming!
