nearly there....

so

after coming off my medication completely a few weeks ago, its almost like I can feel my head resetting its self - im having a lot more positive days and even had a cry a few days ago (over nothing) - which actually felt great because for the last few years ive felt like i couldn't express any emotion

im still have side effects but they are easing but im starting to see the light at the end of the tunnel

im now looking at some none medication practical ways to manage my anxiety if anyone has any tips?

CBT worked wonders for me but i dont think the NHS will allow for me to have any more

hi, you could find a support group that might help.

Glad you're doing better. If you were in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, you would to remember and practice the technique's taught by your therapists. Other members of this forum will be most likely offering you information about handling anxiety when you stop meds, so I'll leave now....but CBT is a tool for you to use after your sessions are completed. Try that, and I wish you the best.

Great to read your post! Does the idea of a therapist (private), who's qualified in psychotherapy & life-coaching, appeal. It could be useful in staying motivated & on track, & not necessarily someone whom you would see too often??
