Had a choir concert and was very pleased with myself

[joans60]

I want to share this with all my friends on NMP.
I am in a ladies choir and last night we had our annual concert
I was not looking forward to it because of my anxiety
But I did it with no problems
I was there all day getting the hall ready
We were on the stage from 7.30pm until 10.30pm it was very hot on there with all the lights on you but still I coped.
Also half way through the show we had members that had completed 25 and more years service with the choir me being one of them we were given a presentation we all were called up individually to receive or award and that was a bit daunting but I did it.
The night went very well and we gave money out to 3 charities as well.
So you can do these things when you have got to.
Waiting for the next one to come around.

Hello Joan.

Well done you. Glad it was a success and you coped really well.

I want to join a Choir when my Anxiety is a bit better. I did join an Ensemble choir, a few months ago, but only went once because of Anxiety reasons.

Any advice would be much appreciated.

Hi There Ju.ann
You go and join again it is very theraputic and calming because when you are singing you forget about your anxiety and it helps to calm you down.
Let me know how you get on.

Hi Joan60,

Just wanted to say that its really nice to hear such a positive post, it sounds like you had an amazing evening :) xx

Hi Spy
Yes I did I had an amazing night
Wish I was doing it again tonight
Also we gave £2000.00 out to charity as well so it was all worth while the worrying to see peoples faces when we gave them the donations.
Have got another concert on Sunday as well.
