Hello, I thought I'd introduce myself to everybody.
My name is Jordan and im 23, From Liverpool, England.
Ive suffered from an anxiety disorder for about 3 years now which had manifested itself in all sorts of ways, including pure ocd.
Ive been taking CBT sessions for a few months now but its so hard to tell if im doing it right or if its making a difference, which kind of worries me because I feel that if CBT wont work, then what will?
I just want to feel like I felt before I had my very first panic attack in 2009. My therapist tells me its a bad idea to keep obsessing over 'how I was' but its so hard. Its extremely difficult to take that I may not be the same person as I used to be, when I was full of excitement for the things I have a passion for.
I guess its a battle to regain my ways of thinking before the panic attacks ad extreme anxiety re wired my brain.
Anyway, I hope to speak to people going through similar situations so its nice to be here.
