Feeling Restless

I have gone through the family manipulation, workplace abuse and also gone through various other social issues. I had over a period of time developed the restless feeling whenever I feel something that I can't deal with say "fight or flight" mode. When I am helpless in both situations then it becomes harder to deal with some of the situations and in that situation I feel restless.

Have you felt the similar restlessness?
 
I have felt restless at moments when I don't know what tomorrow holds for me. Those times that I am doing everything that I can do to become better and it was not working the way that I expected it to go.
 
I have felt like this myself a few times, it really is a horrible feeling that you can not seem to shake and you become overwhelmed with the feeling of restlessness which never helps at all. Not being able to shake that feeling as well doesn't help matters and I don't know about anyone else but I also sometimes feel guilty about feeling that way as well which just adds to it all.
 
Oh for sure I feel restless almost every day for one reason or another. Especially around crowed places. Then my fight or flight really kicks in and I want to flee. 😭
