Hi all

I was a member of anxiety unlocked 2 and a half yrs ago. I had very high anxiety with over the top in symptoms. I never even went into my bathroom or down stairs in my house. I have been back to work now since april 15 with no sick behind me. I had never in my life suffered anxiety until then and was not a anxious person before it. But lifes stresses caused my anxiety. If anybody wld like to speak please ask. I will help if i can. I may put my story and symptoms on here n how my life was. You can get well from anxiety but have to put in to get the rewards back.

Ps . You will never die from anxiety. It feels bad and like you will. But you certainly will not

Hi bonnie1959, Congrats, I am so happy for you. It's nice to read a success story. You are absolutely right in that it takes work to reap in the benefits. Whether you use medication and/or therapies of sorts, you need to follow through on using all you've learned in turning your anxiety around. I think it would be beneficial for others to read your story and how you got your life back. Wishing you continued success. Thanks for sharing. x

Well said Bonnie. Sufferers need to carry on doing normal stuff rather than dwell on the sypmtoms which are completely harmless.

Hi Bonnie, thank you so much for your post, you're an inspiration and I look forward to hearing your story of how you got through your anxiety and what things helped. I'm a total prisoner to my anxiety and panic attacks, life is hell and has been for some months now so hearing a genuine success story as yours will give me great hope and I'm certain for others too, take care xx xx
