    To anyone suffering with anxiety

    To anyone suffering with anxiety

    Hey I suffer with anxiety but lately it is improving I have achieved this by constantly challenging myself to go to the places and situations that make me anxious although it was and is hard at the time with persistence I have seen a significant decrease in my anxiety levels and I will continue to challenge the situations and places to hopefully eventually be without anxiety and I hope you can too all the best x

    Yes!! You've found a way to face anxiety down!! Good for you! It's called desensitization and it works if you do it in reasonable doses that you can handle. I have done it with public speaking to a degree, with speaking out or reading in tiny groups and slowly in bigger and bigger groups. I haven't managed in really big groups, though. I've still got to find a way to conquer that size. Thanks for posting this!!
