all the crap i go through on a daily basis....i want to give up completely...after several suicide attempts, im still here...im on the right med cocktail for me right now...im still trudging on...i know it can be easy for me to suggest to you to do some calming exercises breathing scanning the body for sensations call some one take a bath or a cool shower call a hotline...but i wont....just try to think of how special you are in this world, although it may not seem like it now...you do matter...i care! if you EVER need to talk rant scream or just cry to someone, message me ok im a great listener...i hope things get better for you...when things get tough for me, i wish i would take my own advice...easier said than done.funny how that works...but seriously, feel free to contact me :)

It would definitely be easier to give up. There is no work involved in that. It is much easier to just be miserable, than it is to get up every day and force yourself to think positively no matter how bad you feel. It is very hard.
The good thing is, that it is entirely up to you. You can choose to be anxious and unhappy, or you can choose to do the work and get your life back someday. Nobody can make that choice for you, nor should they judge you for your decision.
With people with anxiety...we are either motivated to get better or we are not. It usually isn't until people hit their own personal bottom that they truly want to change their lives and do whatever it takes to do it. Some people never get there. I have met a LOT of people in the past few years who would much rather cry and whine about it and play the victim, then do the necessary work to fix it. (I am not saying YOU are like that, but a lot of people are.)
You have to be willing to do the work, no matter how mentally hard it is. It is the only way to get better. No pill can make you stop worrying, and stopping your worry is the only true way to stop anxiety.
I wish you lots of luck and strength.

You both make great points, the other day i went into a shop on my own and bought something which i haven't done in 8months!
i realized in the past 8 months i was making myself ill by doing nothing thinking that staying in the house makes me safe, i still have panic and anxiety attacks i still feel sick from time to time some really bad times, but staying in the house is making me ill its not different to being out or being around friends i kno that now ! i just need to get it in my head. and you both said a lot that helped me! your amazing people you took the time to comfort a complete stranger, i know that is what this site is for but when people join these sites they expect to get help than give it and i don't blame them. everyone wants help.
i will always remember your kind and inspiring words. if you ever need to talk add me message me anytime i check this site everyday if i can :)



Thank you so much! xxxxxx
