Sleep...

[london-man]

I find myself just trying to get through the days just so i can get to bed at night and sleep, i'm constantly looking for a way to end the anxiety, I know the answer lays within myself....it's just finding the answer that is the real problem.

Have you ever tried talking to your subconscious and thanking it for all the warnings that it is sending you (that are giving you the anxiety) but telling it that it is causing you a problem so you are going to go away and focus on something else for a while?

You may need to sit your subconscious down and give it the talk hundreds of time or it may just be dozens but it should eventually get the message.

think of it as a sort of meditation.

Really hope you find something soon ...

Agree that sleep is a wonderful escape

Thanks Gambit, great advice...I will try that, I know it's the subconcscious mind that causes the problem, it's about switching off the worry cycle and thought patterns.

Hi LM

I can relate to those feelings & thoughts & no exactly where you are coming from

There was a post yesterday from a member , that has taken their recovery at the pace it needed to be taken & after nearly two years they now find their selves in a better place

Anxiety & learning the answers that are right for us , takes time , I no lots of us struggle as we dont want to feel this way any longer than we have to , but if we can accept we will get better & the answers will come , but its small steps , it takes away the pressure , which when we put pressure on ourselves , that leads to more anxiety

It still is early days & I no you may not see it as we dont when we are the one suffering , but you are taking those steps & I have every faith in you

You will be seeing the GP again this week , explain still how you are feeling , they may look at your meds

Love
