Hi Titch

We both have probs with the old esteem malarky eh.

I think it's a bit of a vicious circle for you, cos the things you could do to boost yr esteem are the things you are fearful of. BUT you areso getting there.

You went for the pub meal:yahoo:
You collected yr little one from school:yahoo:

These r just 2 examples of how you have done so very well at not letting fear control you. This takes immense courage and I for one think you are a brave lass. You look for solutions all the time, to help your self, big pat on the back for that alone. Not to mention returning to work..........flippin norah you go girl lol.

I reckon in order for us to have self esteem, we have to have believe in ourselves as individuals. For me, I still don't feel to brill about myself no matter what I do. But as u know, I am sooooo hoping that counselling will help me feel better in me own skin.

I think u r doing so well, I think it's just a matter of time for you hun, and then world watch out he he xx


Love Jules xx

Thanx Hope 2 .........xxx

See I just seem 2 be going through the motions but not actually getting better ...if that makes sense .....Im doing these things but still wake anxious and go 2 bed anxious ...............Do you think this is normal and maybe in time will get better ........regarding work I dont know if its right thing 2 do but will see eh !

See how Im negative on things ....Arghhhhhhhhh xx

I always see the downside and not the upside ....maybe Its cus Im having bad day xxx

You will do it aswell Hope You ARE a great person ..I know u will not prob believe me as Im the same but you are xxxxx

Big Big Hugs x:bighug1:
