getting through a birthday party just fine

Hello all.

Been on edge all week - blaming an approaching period - and today I faced a small, but hectic, birthday party for my eldest's 9th...I actually survived it and just want to live like that permently, no annoying thoughts just happy faces. Tomorrow I face my third attempt at going to the doctors for a blood test - I think they're annoyed that I missed the last two attempts, oh well...just need to keep the happy going

Well done , surviving a Birthday party when you havnt got anxiety , can be stressful , especially with a load of energetic 9 year olds , I am really please for you

Are you frightened of having blood tests

I am not keen & they always struggle getting blood from me

Go & do it though , & just look away , its over in a second & then get on here & tell us

I no you can do it & once you have it will be one less thing for you to worry about

Good luck

Love

The blood test is done and dusted...I wasn't frightened of the blood test, I'm fine with them...It's just the main way my anxiety manifests is through my emitophbia - I just have have to think about the possibility that I might be sick in front of someone and it is a real fight just to get out the door...at least with party I was so busy there was no time to think :)
