If you have read my other posts you know that I have had a couple of weeks where my anxiety has returned after months of being ok. I have thought about going back to medication but dont really want to if I can. The other day I forced myself to take the bus into town which I did although it was frightening. Today I was in school helping out when all of a sudden I could feel panic rising, no reasoning behind it - is there ever . it was like the person I was talking to was echoing, I could feel the anxiety flashing through my body etc, I thought I know what this is no need to take notice dont be scared, and sure enough within seconds the feelings had gone. I shocked my self and was left feeling a bit shaken that I could actually take control. I am of course now worrying about the next time it may happen but just needed to tell someone of what I have achieved today.
