Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
i like therapy because...
1) i am able to get things off my chest
2) my therapist usually makes me laugh
3) i get to ask my questions
4) i receive good advice/information
5) i am able to track my progress
6) i am talking to someone who can help me, and not making my husband nuts (and i mean this in a good way...)
it's kinda like my anxiety clock gets reset.
anybody else feel like this?

Therapists can bring things to light you didn't know were there and help you find answers.
Therapists can help you figure out why you think the things you do and how to change negative thinking into something positive!
They can help you get your life back!
When you are ready to talk, sort through the issues, and organize your thoughts, they are a great sounding board!
Much safer than a spouse, who is dealing with the after effects of your daily distractions.
Yes, I agree that therapy is wonderful! It does help you reset your brain and body clock to back in sync.
i remember asking mine, so why will CBT help me if you teach it? after all, i have read about it books, and it just ain't working. and he said: b/c books don't talk back. and that's pretty true. i went, expecting a magic cure, and there isn't any, but this is pretty good. also, you have to WANT to be cured, and feel better, more than you want the pain, and bad habits of feeling bad. it won't happen overnight, but it will happen - kinda like losing weight. i try to be completely honest, and not hide my fears/worries. that way, i can examine and deal w/ them.
my poor hubby says: how many times do i have to tell you, you are ok? he's not trained to fix this kind of thing. i know he would, if he could.
so, hopefully, i have tossed another batch of irrational fears out the door, and now it's back to business as usual...
