I know that this is a community of people who have anxiety and I have it tío so I put myself in order to talk to anyone who wants it or need it, I think that many times this is a monster that is difficult to fight for oneself, and neither Everyone understands what it is like to have this in mind or do not have the necessary tact to sit down and talk with someone who suffers from this.

Making a long story short, I am 39 years old and almost a year with this situation of anxiety, I have had very ugly episodes, in a moment I came to the emergency 4 times in a week, I had any amount of ECG, also laboratory tests, I just need to have a CT scan, which although I am resisting the idea, I don't completely discard it. At this moment it is not that I am well at all but I am not like at the beginning, a few nights ago I had an ugly relapse with strong palpitations, my face fell asleep, I felt like electricity in my head, dizziness and all those symptoms that in some time we felt, but that storm lasts a few minutes and then the calm comes. For months I was sedentary just sitting at my work despite all my life I play sports but I abandoned it because of the chaotic thoughts that said it would give me something if I did physical effort. I recently resumed my exercises, not at the pace of before but little little by little im getting there, I set the goal of running a marathon this year, at least one, I am already running over 8k in decent time, I also got un the gym again, that along with meditation and breathing exercises have helped me a little. I repeat I am not well but I am not like before.

Sometimes I doubt if it may be possible that despite all the exercise I do something is wrong with me, according to several doctor friends I have, it is very unlikely that this is the situation, but as normal as it is with anxiety sometimes it takes the best of us and does not leave me.

I think that would be everything about me, as you can see I still have a lot to do, but I get in touch by this means so you all know that you are not alone, that it is not something that only one person has and that we can get out of this, se just hace to trust ourselves.

We can do It people.
