Hi
Does anyone else sometimes have a period where they feel okay and the anxiety seems to have disappeared and then all of a sudden from nowhere, it comes back really 'full on'? Sometimes, I feel like I have really conquered it and taken massive steps forward then BANG, it's back again! This seems to be my pattern and I get so disappointed and cross with myself when it comes back and I go into that negative cycle again.
I know it's partly my fault because when I feel well I tend to stop doing all the 'good things' ie exercise, eating well, relaxation tapes etc. and think I'm fine, I've conquered it! I suppose it'a all part of accepting I have this anxiety and will always have it and the way to get better and to manage it is to look after ourselves. It's just when it's not there, I want to do everything as I feel so good compared to feeling anxious and worried about everything!
It's so good to be able to read what people say and to know that we're not alone in our suffering.
Love, light and hope.
