It has been a month since I last posted. Everything is going great. I have been panic free for one month knock on wood..We even took a trip in which we drove and everything was all good. I sure hope that my panic is behind me now..
I think I have been harder on myself then anyone else. I have disappointed myself. I know whats right, but I chose to look the other way. No one can run my life....Its mine....I just needed a reality check. Get back in touch so they say. We all need to remember to fight our own battles. We cant hide behind others. We need to do this on our own, in order to have that power. I hope that make sense. Being powerless means losing control. PANIC is the fear of no control. Believe in yourself and take control because we are powerless until we do.
Since I started this program and started to post my fears, and how I have overcome some in the past has been a wake up call. I have gone back many times and reread my own posts and I couldn't believe that was me. What I have done in the past to challenge my fears and how I had conquered them was surprising to myself. I guess I lost myself for awhile. I asked myself what is different now from then. I think I had self pity and low self esteem. Maybe even bordering depression. As my spirits have been lifting so has my attitude about the way I react to things. For every new problem there is always a answer, I plan on addressing my issues and not them them build up inside of me. Stay positive and strong.
This took me 25 minutes to type. This gave my brain a workout. WOW I think I got it.....
I went in to work today for the first time in a long time with no anxiety. It was beyond great.....From now on I'm not going to hide my feelings nor allow myself to coward in a corner by fear. What a good start in me first few steps.
Colleen thank you right back! But I wanted to point out that it wasn't me at all. I simply asked question and it was YOU that pushed yourself to do this. You motivated yourself and came to realizations. So you deserve all the credit
I would like to THANK YOU for your support. You gave me that push to carry this through. I will keep you posted on the ongoings. Tomorrow I go back to work and face my boss with confidence and not fear. I cant fully describe how this feels. All I can say is it feels GREAT....
I just wanted to say I'm proud of what you did, and the courage it took to confront the situation head-on. You're absolutely right that you should have done this long ago. Have a great day. I think things will start changing for you for the better as a big weight has been lifted off your back, right? Take care, Don
