Hi everyone. I live in The Bahamas, and suffer from anxiety and panic attacks. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone and give support in any way I can.

Hi everyone I live in Tacoma Washington. I have Fibro, panicattacks and anxiety. I also have phobia and eating disorder. I have made great friends here and everyone seems to understand what your going thru. If theres anything I can do to help or just be an ear please just let me know. I will be going in the hospital on the 19th and having my hip replaced but will keep my phone on me so I can sigh in here.

Hi all, I live in pennsylvania and i suffer from anxiety and depression. I love this site and all the wonderful people I meet here. Its nice to know there are others out there that go through the same thing you do and that youre not alone. For the longest time I felt crazy, like there is noone else out there going through what I am but now I see that isnt true.

Hi Bahama, tazzy and rachel..
So nice to see you here...
I am a 32 year sufferer ( Ok since childhood really ) of Panic/Anxiety/PTSD/OCD<<<Just diagnosed with OCD due to my distorted thinking Obsessive worrying etc:
I hope we can all gain some insight to how out thoughts ( minus the ones with PTSD ) affect our conditions...
Feel free to post anything that you feel is for here...I know I sure will be :)
Hugs To All
Ravin (Dana )

Oh did I mention NUMEROUS Phobias and none specific!! ( Cats Dogs rats etc ) Nope mine have to be..Ok weird!!

Or maybe, just maybe I'm Unique LOL

You sure are Unique Dana ;) ..... Yoo Hoo It me !!

Hi everyone !!

I have not been on DS for about nine months, but am feeling the need to return.
Ravin sent me an invitation to this group, so perhaps it is the right time to look at my Thinking Pattern (yet again)

Welcome to Bahama, tazzy and rachel and thanks Ravin for the invite.

Like most of you, I too have lots of anxiety issues, constant worry, panic attacks, social phobias, Bipolar2 etc ... hmmm think that is enough to be going on with eh ;)

I am a great believer that our beliefs/thought patterns are a major contribution to our condition(s), so lets hope that we can support each other and get ourselves on a smoother pathway.

Love to hear what people are thinking.

Hugs AngelEyezz xx

So glad you came hon, I haven't been here in way to long too and my thinking drives me crazier than I already am =-/
They are ONLY thoughts but, so hard to dispute them in the middle of them..
ANY suggestions are VERY welcome anyone...
Hugs

Hello to all. I am from Philadelphia, PA. Long acquaintance of depression and anxiety, new to the site. It is a pleasure to meet everyone. I look forward to participating in the group and hopefully easing everyone's journey just a little.

Welcome Terminal Frost,
So good to have you in the group...
I hope we all can maybe help each other with our own coping skills..some will work some will not BUT, all are worth a try right?
Have a beautiful day
Hugs
Ravin

Thank you for the kind welcome.

I am certainly open to any suggestions anyone has in interrupting the negative chain of thoughts. I guess I should start? The two things that usually help are splitting my life into containers with one reserved for whatever is bothering me at the time and doing relaxation exercises/meditating.

Ravin, I totally love your avatar. Was it a custom job? it looks great!
