Just wanted to say Hi to all

[Draydon]

Hi Guys, I just wanted to quickly introduce myself to the forum. I've been dealing with anxiety for the past 15 years or so. It started out with my first panic attack in 2001 and over the years has morphed more into GAD with a tinge of Hypocondria I think lol. My main issue is my anxiety is all pretty much internally focused. It all started with thinking I was having a heart attack then I had a lump in my throat, then tumor in my brain, then MS etc..... Funny how it's changed over the years (sneaky anxiety lol) I was on an older sight that disappeared and found this one and decided to join. I know on the old site I used to BLOG on it about my struggles but unfortunately it appears this site doesn't have BLOGS? I will post in the forums and if anyone wants to PM feel free.

I look forward to joining this site to help and be helped :)

No we don't have blogs but you can do pretty much whatever you want here.

Hope you find some support.. Anxiety is indeed a tricky beast.

Thanks guys.

I think Blogs can be a good thing for just typing out how you're feeling and what you're going through.

Unfortunately I'm not a tekkie so I can only imagine there would be added cost to the forum for all the space? Plus the need to set it up

Hey nice to meet ya. I suffer from this anxiety it's called health anxiety. I have been to 3 different doctors because I thought I had ms a tumor or something- I just have HIGH anxiety that is almost unmanageable atm-- and it's wreaking havoc on me. I will over come it though because I am determined. Going to see my therapist today to talk about taking meds for when I have an anxiety attack.
Love to see blogs haha!

Thanks guys, it really does make me feel better (and hopefully everyone else) that we are not alone in what we feel and think.

Hi and welcome! There are a couple of people on here who keep ongoing threads about their lives and anxiety experiences. Not exactly a blog but is something for you to consider.
