Hi everyone,
Someone made a post a week or so ago (sorry I can't find it) that pretty asked people to post successes that they have had with anxiety. At the time I read the post, I was at my worst and feeling miserable. Now looking back, I think it's a great idea. It is very helpful and comforting to share the negative feelings that we all are feeling from anxiety and relate to others in this way, but what about all the good things that we are able to do and overcome? Those are just as much worth mentioning!!
Also, what has helped you with anxiety? Besides meds, any therapy, vitamins, natural remedies, etc.
I know that anxiety can get us down. It has definitely gotten me down, but my neighbor who has cancer inspired me yesterday. She has been told three times that she does not have much longer to live. She has done chemo multiple times and has had cancer for almost 20 years. Yet, she has remained positive and has not given up on fighting the cancer, and I think that is what has kept her alive. She is an amazing person and is still living life to the fullest. I truly believe that keeping a positive attitude will help to overcome anxiety.
Let's try to post successes with anxiety and what has helped you to overcome (even if you are still dealing with anxiety, what has helped you to get through a situation that may have caused you anxiety).
Looking forward to replies,
Lexie
