Anxiety and POSITIVE CHOICES Community Group
Learn the skills to conquer overwhelming anxiety from physical to emotional coping. We can choose how we feel and think, you just have to be willing to make those changes and commit to them.
I am happy I went out last night. It was a success. It felt like the old days where I could focus and I wasn't scared.
We watch the final four. Go Tar Heels!
Anyway, before I left I looked around my house and said, "being in the restaurant will be no different than being here in my house."
Throughout the evening I would occassionally tell myself the same thing. 2-3 times I had that weird feeling where my head moved and things looked like they were moving and I would just tell myself that's all it is.
The 2nd thing I reminded myself was when Dr. Phil told someone who struggled with panic on his stage, "..so if you faint, you'll wake up and we'll continute our interview." I remember when he said that it struck home with me because I never took that fear past fainting...always just scared of fainting and being embarrassed.

Glad your night out was a success. I have had that sensation, where you look around you and things seem to be coming towards you, and people are moving too quickly.
I saw it on a film one night, and knew exactly how she felt .... she was panicking about being out also.
I have had many feelings .... of feeling faint, but have never actually done it.
I have been to my sons football game this morning and then we all went shopping for some new clothes, and sportswear for my son along with some football boots for his birthday.
So great day was had by all ............. hope everyone has a great day too.

hey angel, that sounds like a day full of successes! great job.
yesterday, my resin finally arrived. i mixed some up and poured it over my bottle cap charms. then i realized how cloudy the resin was ans went on the internet and found out that it should be mixed when its warm (about 70 degrees) and it did not say that on the bottle. so i had to pull out all my collages i made. i loved them and was so proud of them but then i ruined them with resin that would never harden. well, if that had happened a few weeks ago, i would have cried b/c i had worked so hard on them. but i tried to feel upset and couldn't i was like "oh well, i'll have to make them again." it must be the sensoril working. this is my fave supplement ever. hey on a good note, i didn't mix enough resin to pour over my two fave ones! so that's good. but i did ruin 14 out of 19. oops. have a good day!

Such a waste of your good work, but if you managed to deal with it ~ then weeeeeee
you can always make them again. Looking at it positively, your favourites were safe.
What supplement is this "sensoril" ? I am always on the lookout for something that will help.
Seems to have done the trick for you.

It's only 3 degrees celcius here but the sun is shinning. It's great to hear success stories Betsy!!
Hang in the Rabbits .. like Angel said.. 'you manged to deal with it' .. that's a big plus.. all we can do is control ourselves.. we can't control others in any way.
Angel, glad your spirits are better today.
I'm feeling good.. got a work-out in and I'm feeling all refreshed. Heading out for a bit now.. Hope you all have a wonderful afternoon or in your case Angel a great evening.

We humans...we always learn better from our mistakes! That will never happen again. :)
And, I am sure it's not going to be the last lesson. Just take them as lessons...not mistakes.
