Hi everyone, I just wanted to share some good stuff. Today was my first day back at university. I leave my house at 8:15am and Return at 6pm. I have to travel 35 miles on the motorway to get there. I had a good day and completed it without any think bad happening. As we all know, us anxiety sufferers tend to over think and imagine the worst.
I just want to show that although you think and worry and work yourself up about things, it is possible to still push yourself to do it and have a good day in the end.
I'm feeling proud of myself as I was thinking about dropping out. I hope no one thinks I'm being nasty or insensitive in any way. I just wanted to share a little success of mine.

hey Cara - been a bit since I've sen you

No one will take that as insensitive

That is one of thing we fail often at, celebrate the victories

We will go on and on about the bad things but just mention something good in passing

We need more threads such as yours

You should be proud of yourself

Just another step closer

Knowing that someone has had a good day is positive for us all. It shows they do exist and will come to us all from time to time and hopefully more often than not.

Thanks for sharing and long may it continue for you!

Good stuff Cara! Celebrate that good day, let all the other good days know that there's a party waiting for them when they come. They'll rush along!

I celebrated. Had a big smile inside :) and one on the outside. I have one now whilst writing lol.
My spa day was great. I was worrying about that for ages too. Once again it went great and felt good. :)

Thank you Cimi. I'm sorry your day started bad but I'm glad it turned out well. My anxiety is always worse in the mornings so I know how hard it is to push in and keep your chin up but I also know that it's great when it does turn around. :). Sometimes I think just having a smile in the outside, even if we are bubbling with anxiety on the inside can perk us up.
