The ups and downs...

Hey everyone, for months i have been getting better and better, recently i caught a chest infection that wouldnt shift and had to get antibiotics from my docs. It kicked off terrible anxiety, just the other day i came home in the morning after being out for just over an hour and sobbed my heart out, i was feeling so dreadful...

I woke up with it this morning but went out and met an old friend i hadnt seen in 20 odd years, right now im laying on the sofa typing to you guys, my anxiety is still with me but i carry on because i know it will eventually wear thin and be more managable.

I just want to say to all those on here that are suffering very badly, you are not alone...i know every day is a battle but you will overcome it, i have beat it and it has returned, i will beat it again. The way i see things at the moment is i know i feel terrible but i have gratitude for all the good things in my life, they are the positive things that i focus on.

I wish you all well for 2014, i'm sorry i'm not here as much but i try my best to move on with life and create new goals and and try to bring more love and compassion into my life aswell as everyone else, if we could all focus on bringing love and happiness into our lives aswell as others i'm pretty sure we will change our problems for the better.

Love to you all...

Ciaran :)

What a lovely post:)

Sorry it's back, as you say you've beaten it before you can do it again! Knowing how anxiety works is the key... Knowledge is power in my book:) xx

Hey , have missed you on here. Your name always reminds me of my hometown.

Like you, I am a lot better than I was and then a a while ago had a very anxious few weeks. I thought I was going backwards again and was really quite frightened as I didn't want to go back there.

Pleased to say, that I got over that blip and am not too bad at the moment.

I hope that you are feeling better soon.

We try to be positive and those thoughts rub off into the rest of our lives.

happy New Year. Julie xx
