and thought I had better introduce myself

I am female, early 40s, have terrible anxiety (generalised and health) and panic attacks, I do have some real health problems though so its hard to differentiate between what is real and what is just my anxiety playing up! I am starting CBT so hoping that is going to help.

Life is hard ATM, I have recently given up work due to health probs so its hard trying to keep my mind busy and not dwell on things
