hi trev welcome to nmp this sight has helpd me alot to no more about anxiety and how to cope with it and im sure it will do the same for you x

[tdunham]

thanks honey its just that ive had it so long i cant seem to get rid of it

[carla g]

how long have you had this for im pritty new to it iv had it for around 3 months now im starting to cope abit better with the help of anti ds, we just need to remind our selves from time to time that we can over come this its gona be hard and a ruff time but their is a way of doing it x

[tdunham]

i think the secret is staying positive, keeping your mind off of it witch is very hard, and positive thinking instead of negative but trying to think positive all the time is very hard

[carla g]

i no what you mean i try and keep myself 2gether but i feel like its not going to and il feel like this 4ever now x

[tdunham]

i get like ice feelings go through my body its horrible. very annoying i feel great for days and then bang off it goes again. im off work at the moment been off for 2 days trying to combat it , im self employed so i cant have to long off ive suffered for 30 years

[tdunham]

i have learnt technics that ease it you just have to let it kind of slip through you except it, try and stay cool, very hard , and then it goes

[tdunham]

i think it gets you into a depressive mood witch makes things even worse, i think if you can feel happy thats half the battle
