Hello All,
I've suffered Anxiety on and off since I was a child (now 31). Mines is generalised anxiety and Heath anxiety. I've had some bad bouts of it in my life but the most recent has brought about symptoms that I hadn't ever experienced and 'the fear of fear' has been taking control...For example, lightheadedness, feeling faint, unable to think or focus and generally feeling that I'm going mad with a constant feeling of andrenaline in my body. It's been horrible and I've had it for months . Anyway, I just want to share that over the last week, I've started learning 'mindfulness' and its helping.... I learned about it via 'the mental Heath foundation' - those outside the UK who don't know MHF, they are a mental Heath charity who have an APP with some really good podcasts that are free. I've also started listening to the Podcasts of 'the anxiety guru' and found them helpful. Anxiety Guru podcasts can be downloaded free.
