Hello everyone!

[jcsllc]

I just wanted to take a minute and say hi. I have suffered with severe anxiety for a very long time. I have also tried just abouth every approach in dealing with it out there so I feel that I can contribute a lot to this forum.

The most recent events in my life that have been tough is losing both of my parents over the past three years. They both succumbed to hard fought battles with cancer. Dad was prostate and Mom lung. I was holding both of their hands when they took their last breath. Everybody keeps telling me that it gets better, for me it's been the opposite.

I find that keeping busy helps and that's what brought me here. Sorry to go on, I really just wanted to introduce myself. I can use some friends so I welcome any request!!!

Thanks and God Bless,
jcsllc

Hey!
I've been suffering from chronic anxiety on and off for 4 years now. i recently had a very stressful break-up and my anxiety has come back and is so strong. the most unbearable part for me is the severe chest pains i get. i've kind of learnt to deal with the panic attacks and i've understood that they wont hurt me and they will go away. but the pains make me paranoid and scared as well which is why i suspect my anxiety keep continuing. anyways, welcome to the forum! i'm new too! :)
