This morning I was so nervous anxious to go to my first physio appointment I was going to just cancel but I plucked up the courage and went .i seen a lovely lady who explained how arthritis osteoporosis can make you feel so isolated and most of all she was listening to how it makes you feel and explained that can cause even more anxiety due to not being able to do things to keep mind busy .i got a walking aid and decided I will go try see if I could get few bits of shopping I did but I felt everyone was looking but I'm happy what a great feeling of the air when you venture outside baby steps i had anxiety bad but I just thought inner strength keep positive even though people don't see it but if only they knew what is going through your head with each step through so many people I'm trying to keep positive and all I kept saying is this life is full of head tests and nothing could get worse when it's tests of the heart I know my mum and da would be so proud of me I keep the faith they will allways be around me so today was good day

Kept my appointment and so happy I did
Hi Louise19711, You did good. Sometimes the thing we get so anxious about doing, ends up being the highlight of our day. In getting a walking aid, you got to try some shopping. There is nothing better than to experience the feel of outdoor air. We all tend to think people are looking at us and must know something is wrong, but the fact is they have their own worries and problems they are dealing with. That's good when you were taking those baby steps, that you were keeping that positive attitude.
I hope you were proud of yourself for having the courage to take that step today. We are proud of you because we know what strength it takes to go forward. You believed in yourself and you did it and because of that, it was a good day. x
Thank you just wish I could feel that way everyday x
Louise19711, when you have a chronic issue, (I have Fibromyalgia), you take the good days with the bad. But you keep going forward with life. We all have our own storms to go through in life. Never think you are alone. Remember that Life will bring you pain all by itself, Our responsibility is to create joy." An inspirational quote from "Learning to Dance in the Rain" by B J Gallagher
Hope today is better than yesterday but not as great as tomorrow will be xx
Well done x
