my brief intro :)

[MissMoo]

I stumbled accross this page the other day and I'd just like to say what a uge relief it is knowing that there are people out there going through the same daily battles as myself :)
I'm 17 years old and first started to really suffer with anxiety about 2 years ago. I've always been a bit of a worrier, recently it's got so hard to handle though. :unsure:
I've found that counseling doesn't really work for me and I'd rather not take medication, so I'm trying to sort this out myself. You all seem like nice people so I look forward to posting here and sharing/ helping with problems!
