Since being diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder, my main focus was to learn how to start loving me for the person I am. GAD is constant state of worry and fear that can be brought on suddenly and for no reason at all. May was the month that it all started, I had countless cry outs, anger, sadness and just feeling like this show will never be over, I even lost a friend because of this! It got to the point where I made the call to a psychiatrist and cried my heart out asking for help. Well today I can say that even though I still have bad days, I am having more good days than bad, my psychologist is helping me to cope with my feelings and my psychiatrist has prescribed me with medication....(yes I have both) to help the anxiety ease up a bit. I finally have accepted ME and I will ALWAYS love myself...I feel great, I was really at a point in my life that I thought there was no help for me! It was not until I found this site that I began to have hope!! Thanks to everyone that I have spoken with, your words of encouragement goes a hell of a long way! Love each and everyone of you!!! πππ
