Hi John
You have certainly come to the right place, this site is so good for advice and support, I don't know what I would have done without it.

[Johnny43]

ThAnkyou jenny,it's good to talk and I usally have plenty to say,it's nice to no that I'm not on my own

[aprilmoon]

You're certainly not on your own Johnny. You'd be amazed how many people have to deal with it.
Welcome to NMP

[Johnny43]

ThAnkyou Aprilmoon,I've dealt with it since I was twenty,lots of intrusive thoughts all the time,but to be honest I think I've become stronger dealing with this and fount qualities I never knew I had

[aprilmoon]

I think that often happens. When you've been through any sort of suffering,I think it changes you.
I think I'm a much nicer person than I was before. I was nice enough then,but now I understand more that everyone has their story,and I'm not so quick to make a judgment of someone.You never know what they've been through,even if they're not very pleasant!

[Johnny43]

Yeah I'd agree,but I've found that I understand more now than before,I seem to have an ability to read people very well now too

Hi john
Good to meet you here. This has been a friendly and safe place for me a few times now. And I know what you mean as well. I'm a kinder person as a result of my anxiety and depression. Would be nice to learn that an easier way though!
Hope you feel at home here
Fred
