Welcome! My name is Destiny. I’ve been diagnosed with GAD as well. There’s so many kind and supportive people on here and it’s nice to meet people who won’t judge you and know what you’re going through! Please feel free to message me absolutely anytime, day or night! ❤️❤️

[Hidden in reply to destinymichelle]

Hi Destiny can I ask what is GAD?

[destinymichelle in reply to Hidden]

GAD is Generalized Anxiety Disorder

[Hidden in reply to destinymichelle]

Yes sorry I should have remembered that. Im here for you I hav MAD so we can help each other anytime. Have you ever taken a grouo called DBT. Diagnostic Behavior Therapy I did and the coping skills ive learned helped though now I need more support.

[destinymichelle in reply to Hidden]

Don’t apologize! It’s perfectly fine! What is MAD? I’ve never tried any kind of therapy but I’m definitely open to it. You can send me a message anytime and I’ll definitely be here for you! I’d love to help support you ❤️

Great to have you on-board. I'm finding NHS's Couch to 5k running programme in dealing with anxiety. Getting moving, getting the heart pumping and having a physical goal to head towards seems to be helping. It takes it slowly with some podcasts that act as an encouraging coach to support you. The aim is to be running for 30 mins/5k after 9 weeks. I encourage you to join me and many others in giving it a try. Oh, they also play some great music to run to.

Hi Ladybug nice to meet you. You’ll find a lot of like minded people in this forum, and most are very supportive and understanding. I hope you find the answer to your questions you might have, or at least a bit of empathy. And I also suffer from GAD and I have depression as well.

Have a great day.
