inspiration for you guys

hiya people i faced my worst fear tonight i went back to work after being off sick for 5 weeks i cant tell you how pleased i am with myself

i have had sleepless nights for the last 5 weeks worrying about work none stop and i was very very scared of having a panic attack when i returned

i have been so so anxious all day but tonight i have faced my fear

three things enabled me to do this and i know all you guys have it in you to suceed

1/ all your advice and support i would like to thank you for being my tower of strength you have been the best and helped me more than my 110 pound an hour sessions at the priory hospital

2/ my doctor gave me 20mg of propranolol to take for tonight and i took them an hour before i set off for work and i tell you I WOULD RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE i had no churning stumach ,no shakes, no waves of panic and fear and generally felt chilled out.

3/ i was determined not to let that little b******d called anxiety drag me down

thankyou all once again and for anyone who cant see a way out i promise you their is because 3 , 4 and 5 weeks ago i couldnt get out of bed or leave the house i had hit rock bottom and now i see the light at the end of the tunnel

please feel free to ask me any questions and ill try my best to give you the best advice i can to help you regain confidence xxxxxxxxxxxx x
