My story is in my profile and I invite all of you to read it. This is where I thought it was supposed to be! Then I get a message, “You did not post”! Here you see how disorderly I joined and did not know. But I did post, I guess in the wrong place, huh?

Hi Padgad1 and Welcome...Got your post as well as read your profile.

Thank you, as this helps us all understand just where you are and invite

you into our caring support community.

As many years as I have been here, I've never found someone who's

profile came so close to mine. Years, yes years in searching and trying

different methods to attain relief from both Anxiety and Agoraphobia.

Never stopped searching. Tried all methods in retraining my mind and getting

control back of my life. It worked. Like you Meditation and Breathing are my

saving graces. I have my life back. Stopping the feelings before it escalates is the

way to go. Eventually, the mind responds to our retraining of our brain. We

automatically go into response w/o even thinking twice. It's a great tool to have

under our belt. I'm sorry you had trouble posting, but you are in the right place

at the right time to continue your journey. We understand as well as care. I'm happy

you are here with us. Namaste new friend :) xx

I read your profile, and your attitude and approach to things is similar to my own. And you, like me, are a "talker" in the way you process things, step by step. What I took away from what you wrote is that I have not been using any of these tools for a long time, and your success inspired me to start (I hope):incorporating these wellness tools back into my life on a daily basis. They do provide the "self control" that alleviates so many other problems that stem from things you described. My problems are different, so I choose different guided meditations and focus, but the gist of your message is the same. I too know how helpful these tools are. Thanks for the gentle unspoken reminder of what I need, that I can do. 🙏❤️
