I have awoken this morning after another restless night worrying about my heart. But this morning something is different. Instead of sitting on the sofa checking my pulse I had a brisk walk to the shop to get a paper. Once back at home my wife nearly collapsed when I offered to hoover the house!!!!
The past two years have been very tough. Always worrying about my health and not doing the things I enjoy. I have wasted the last 2 years but no more Mr Anxiety, enough is enough.
In the new year I have the opportunity to start a new job. 2013 will be a new start for me:
1. Stop drinking so much - I drink to relax and am now drinking 15 units a day!! I am sure that this in itself will ease the anxiety and help me feel better.
2. My new job will involve travelling and staying at nice hotels so instead of sitting in the bar I intend to use the Gym and try to get a bit fitter.
3. Remain positive and not concentrate on the negatives.
4. Finally, I am going to reclaim my life and start enjoying life for what it is.
If any one else has had enough of anxiety and wants a new start in 2013 get in touch and we can help each other..
As I write this post I am already feeling better. I know it won't be easy and I know there will be times when I am awake checking my pulse at 2am but I am determined to beat this!!!!
Happy New Year to you all. I hope you all have a less anxious 2013. xx
