      Please try to keep telling yourself that you are okay. That's the hardest thing we have to overcome. I know. I have ended up in the ER hundreds of time thinking each time that this is it. My family and friends are tired of it. I feel like I'm on my own. But I'm trying everything to remain calm and tell myself that it's just anxiety. We will be okay. You will be okay. Here for you. Stay strong. xx

    Hello rhianna

    Well now, you are taking ONE BIG STEP by going to work.  So you can do it!  It is all about perseverence....plus some help from meds.  TRAIN BRAIN is a good mantra.  It is not easy, but try to not be so aware of your mind and body and concentrate on the good/better things.  It does pay off.  Your meds will keep you steady.  So PLEASE keep trying.  Good Luck!
