A little hope.

I guess I often see the bad without a lot of the good. Here’s my attempt to change that a bit. I spent about a year and a half in a constant state of panic and anxiety. I would often think it’s never going to end. I started reading books, and applying techniques, and I can now say I’m doing much better. I understand I’m going to have good and bad days. I don’t encourage them, I just expect them. I’ve had almost 4 months of about 75% less anxiety. There is a way to beat it. I just want to provide some hope for someone wanting to see something positive. You just need to want it, and work it every day. Treat it like a job. There is hope though.

I totally agree with you I use the DARE response book and mindfulness too and it's really changing my life I was fighting the feelings desperately trying to relax but it was just making it worse Now I accept the feelings they are horrible but they pass every time and my worst what ifs haven't happened You do have to work at it don't you but the benefits are so worth it

I'm so happy for you that you are getting better 😊
