Hi not sure how many people will remember me as I haven't been on here for a while but I wanted to come & share my success story to show how anxiety can be beaten.
For 2 years I was on a downward spiral with anxiety, panic attacks & depression & rarely left the house. September 2006 was when things began to turn around, i got an appointment with a counsellor after waiting a year and began having cognitive behavioural therapy which helped me a lot, although i didn't realise how much progress i was making at the time I can see how far I have come. The CBT wasn't quite enough for me so after a lot of thought i started on a Cipralex in january. Its not always been easy & at times i have wanted to give up but now I am leading a completely anxiety free 'normal' life. I can do so much that I wouldnt have dreamed possible less than a year ago & i actually enjoy doing new things now as I know I can.
If anyone has any questions please feel free to pm me. Thanks for reading
Love & hugs
Suzy xx
