Ok, It will be OK you will be OK.
I always tell myself that nothing bad has happend to me up until this point... I know that it is SO HARD. I am having another hard day myself, feelig as though I won't get better.
i suppose that we both need to use positive self talk!!!

Let me know how it goes when you get back OK?? Until then I will be thinking of you..

Glad that things went well. Funny how we always get ourselves so worked up..
We are in the middle of a week of rain and my kiddos and I are sick so needless to say I have a lot of time on my hands, we are in for the week.
I have a laptop and I keep it on all day and periodicly check to see whats going on.

I go to see my therapist tomorrow and I am excited. I need to see her to get the reasurrance that I am ok and that setbacks are ok and that I will be happy again.
Hopefully she tells me all that..LOL

My anxiety level is high, I am just trying to relax and talk myself down. It doesn't help that I have a sinus infection and can't stop coughing. I just hate the unreal feeling.

Take Care..
HUGS,
Heather

same here heather.lots of rain all week.doesnt help the down days any.have you tryed reading at all.i think i will always have anxiety the rest of my life and that awful disconnected feeling from time to time.its learning to deal with it. i think thats the thing i had to do, then it dont scare you so bad.your still a good mom and the same person you always have been.i am sure you are ok heather.i look up to you alot.your a very caring person.something someone told me was that i was the only one who thought something was wrong with me NO ONE else thought it.just me.so i told myself gosh i must be createing alot of this.i was so scared at one point i had my sister sit with in the bathroom while i took a bath.i new i was ok but the unreal feeling scared me so bad.one day she said,so what if you feel unreal your the only one who thinks that i said,but i dont feel like jeanie anymore i want me back.she said of course u dont feel like jeanie anymore cuz your constantly telling urself that u dont.i told her i wasnt normal,god love her she said.WHAT THE HELL DOES NORMAL MEAN...heather i can totally relate to what ur going threw and i think we all do.it will get better.i got ahead of myself asked you about reading.i love my books on anxiety.i have attacking anxiety and gf.that helped me tremendosly*.i have had that book for yrs and i always go back to it.my brother has this same prb.i gave him this book and he was like omg i want my own book on this.when i go on vacation that book is packed 1st thing.
