I was in the shower this morning thinking, "Am I ever gonna be able to go through a day without thinking about my anxiety?" and I thought maybe, just maybe, other people feel the same way as I do but they are like me and have nobody to really confide in about it. Atleast to somebody who ALSO deals with this crap and might have a chance at understanding how I feel. So for some really strange reason, I thought about a blog. I've never had any desire to blog before since I'm generally a pretty boring, private person! But, I know this has to be something that other people deal with...people just don't talk about it. It might be kind of awkward when someone says Hi how are you to just lay it all out there and answer, "ya know, I'm really sucky today...having trouble with my anxiety, you know.." I'm sure I might get some weird looks! Anyway, I really just wanted to find a way to reach out to other people, men and women, who suffer with anxiety, panic disorder, depression, etc. and share my experiences and hear their experiences. It seems to me that knowledge equals power...the more I know about my problem, the better I feel about it. The less it controls me. And I think that is one of satan's tools..controlling us through his attacks on our minds. So, here it goes....my blog about my anxiety!
