Thread: Hello Everyone

    Hello Everyone

    Evening everyone, I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I'm Sarah, 38 & live in the West Midlands.

    Anxiety, depression & OCD have been part of my life since I was a teenager and over the last few years health anxiety has crept in. I've recently finished my 2nd go at high intensity CBT, but in times of stress, start checking any symptoms that I do have - often making things worse!

    I would love to get to know others who may feel the same as me, offer a friendly ear or provide a virtual hug (I think we all can do with one of those).

    Hope to hear from you soon, Sarah

    Hello Emmz, thankyou so much for your reply - I was a little nervous to post! It looks like a great site, with lots of really helpful information. Looking forward to hopefully making friends - it can feel a little lonely out there in the 'real' world when you feel like this xx

    Hi! I'm also Sarah from the West Midlands.

    I've suffered from anxiety and depression since I was in single digits, so I know how rough it can be. Hopefully you can find help and friendship here, plus plenty of hugs.

    Hello Sarah (& fellow west midlander!), thankyou so much for your message. It certainly has been a very rough journey & I'm so sorry to read that you have suffered since childhood - its scary enough as an adult.

    Hopefully this doesnt sound silly, but just receiving replies is comforting and I wish I had found this site sooner! 🤗 xx
