My counselor told me to question why I'm anxious when I notice it so we can work on it. Thing is thinking about it makes me... nervous. How can I be sure something is definitely the reason why? What if it's combination of things giving me anxiety?

I've already pondered and questioned why I'm like this *a lot* in the past. I used to write and journal more, but I became too mentally exhausted for it. I was getting stuck in endless loops of thoughts. Probably the main reason why I stopped writing in the first place. If I had those notebooks I could probably get something out of them. I'm afraid if I start journaling again it will turn into something like that.
