Anxiety can do 1 !!

Posted , 4 users are following.

Hey ladies and gents I have suffered with GAD. For years I'm 29 years old ! I had a flare up of anxiety in November luckily our councilling service where I live is amazing and fast I have had councilling and now I'm going straight into CBT. It's been so so hard but I'm learning to enjoy life ... I convinced myself I was dying for months and months and it took over my life .... the hardest part for me is excepting you have good days and bad days ... but just keep in mind that are many good days to follow 👌🏼.... I used to hide my anxiety I was ashamed but now I face it head strong and I'm not afraid to admit I suffer with it ! That's all I wanted to say 😊
