I'm really proud of myself.

I think that I've done really well this past week, not saying my Anxiety is gone, but the way i'm going about it, It will be gone in no time, I keep thinking to myself, "It's not gonna happen" I've trained my brain, on a bus, before going into a shower, before walking on my own, that I can do this by myself and I can tell my brain that I'm not gonna panic. I'm a happy girl and I am better then panic attacks and lightheaded feelings.

I am going to shave my hair off for Anxiety UK and I really would like some support, people are so proud of me, It's unreal, It's a big thing to cut my hair of, but I'd do it for people so they can get more help if needed for their Anxiety. I would love to think that people can get through this though, but that's harder then it seems if you have severe Anxiety.

Please never give up on hope or what you believe.

Never give up on life, you will get better, you will pull through this.

You are strong.

I think you are doing fantastic...but take your time....and be humble about your achievements. I say this to help you, I suffered for 40 years and I found on the good spells I got really high not realising that on the first small hiccup i,d crash. Now this is not going to happen to you...but I say this for anyone reading that in my experience you are better bieng quietly happy than ecxstatic/and therefore better being a little sad than depressed.... I found that the bigger the wave the deeper the trough.......so now i just prefer to contain any over excitement and settle for a quiet happy mode. Wish you well---well done....xxxx

Yes. stde, that is just what I was going to say. When we are up it is great to feel elated but better to just accept our good fortune than get euphoric about it. Good luck lucy, well done, and I hope you continue to feel better. Regards, jonathan.
