Hiya,

Anxiety and depression are so closely linked. I sometimes get the anx symptoms without having HA and vice versa. Do things you enjoy, treat yourself as if you have depression - so good food, exercise and treats are in order.

hope you feel better soon xxx

Hi

I think it is the old anxiety creeping back for a bit.

I get the same thing. I can go weeks feeling good then wham!!

I try ti think what could have started it but never seem to find the answer.
Do you any idea what might have started yours off??

I was just going to say I am worse in the winter too! Maybe lack of sunshine? I don't know but I can say that by march, I will be fine!

Fruity, I find that when I start feeling much better, I get lazy and stop doing all of the positive and helpful things that got me there. I tend to slack off on my deep breathing exercises, my meditation, my writing. I don't bother to put into practice all of the useful tools that I learned through CBT. And practice is the key word for me! Those are the things that are retraining my brain and keeping me healthy. This may not be the case for you, but when start feeling anxious, if I look backwards I generally find that I have been slacking off.

tanner40 thank you.

Tanner40...you are so right!...I do the same and then kick myself for being lazy about "good practice".....

Same here, Sarah. I'm learning not to kick myself. Trying really hard to talk to myself like I would to a friend in need of help. I just have to keep practicing.
