Anxiety Attack Over Big Move

A major anxiety attack after signing a lease or before a big move...

Anxiety Question:

Has anyone had a major anxiety attack after signing a lease or before a big move?

I just found an apartment in NYC after a week of full-time searching and before I need to move for grad school. I came home very happy and satisfied and thinking of all the positive attributes of the place.

Now all I can think about is everything wrong with it. How maybe I shouldn't move. How it's not good for my pets. How it was all a huge mistake. How much money I just gave these people.

I can't sleep. I feel like a bad "mom" to my pets. I just crossed from happy and relieved to wanting to cry. I'd like to hear from anyone who has dealt with this.

Anxiety Answer:

I deal with this daily.

An anxiety attack is quite normal when making large dollar decisions. This happens quite a bit with first time home buyers, but a large lease like those in NYC, would resemble a similar financial undertaking, at least in the mind of the Lessee.

Calm down, remember why it is you decided in the first place to rent this place. Is it really such a bad thing for your pets? Or are you making it as such to rectify your post-lease jitters?

I would be worried if you didn't want to second-guess yourself. It is very normal to re-hash all of the negatives, but you know, there isn't such a thing as a 100% perfect situation in real estate.

You made the decision because it was the best one to make based on everything you had seen compared to it. So obviously, this was a close to 80% perfect situation for you. Don't worry, and focus yourself on the benefits of your new abode.

Dealing with Anxiety Advice

That AWFUL knot in my stomach has gone!

I'm a psychologist and I have been in private practice for more than twenty years. Since early this year, I have been looking for a small house to move my office to, so that I can grow my practice, offer more services to my community and say goodbye to renting. Finally about two months ago I found a suitable house and began the process of buying it, but then the anxiety hit. I was scared of the change! Every morning I awoke with a knot in the pit of my stomach.

After just one week of listening to your "Dissolving Panic and Anxiety" program and printing out the scripts to read every morning, my anxiety, worry and that AWFUL knot in my stomach dissolved and faded away!

I'm due to close on my new office "home" next week and I am so excited about the possibilities! I continue to read your script early every morning, as soon as I get up.

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THESE EMPOWERING PROGRAMS!

Sincerely,
