I have been trying to follow the progam, I printed out all the notes and I try read them when i feel panicky, then i know its going to be ok. I have to read the notes often to feel any sense of getting better. My husband sat in on my session with the psycologist and that helped a huge amount, He has a bit more of an understanding not to be annoyed when I get anxious, but to be supportive, and not be too hard on me.

Members, Time to learn how to start challenging those anxious thoughts! We encourage you to continue working through the program, session 2 & 3 are particularly helpful with this issue. Keep persevering! Danielle, Bilingual Health Educator

It's hard for me to believe that there's nothing wrong with me and if there is a slight discomfort in my body I feel and fear there is something wrong with me. I guess I feel like I should keep track of my body so I can detect illnesses before it's too late. Which makes me anxious.

Hi there, You know, I felt like that, I thought I had one disease, then when that issue cleared up, I thought I had another illness that made me weak also, and then went on until I finally dealt with it with a counsellor and got to the bottom of this fear. I remember how scary it was thinking all these things and upset I would get with myself. I'd found out that I had certain triggers that would start up an "illness" and then I would fly with it. Now, I understand these triggers and how it affects me. I remember saying to myself also, "why can't I just be happy and content with what I have", now to a point, I am with the help of a counsellor, this program and understanding my triggers. I hope this helps....Maggie :)

Each month or so I have a new "illness". One month I thought I had asthma and I couldn't breath...Well the lump in my throatand all of the symptoms dissapeared magically and now I believe I have some kind of disease that is making me weak... but whenever I get over one illness and I start to feel better I jump to another one. It's almost like I just can't allow myself to live in peace and just be happy. I think it's ridiculous. I had always been a strong person. It had me so upset the other day I started screaming at myself in the middle of the craft store...The people must have really thought I was nuts....LOL ( maybe it's really not that funny)
