Hi, if you have questions just post them, like you did and one of the Health Educators (moderators) will pick up on it and help you out. They are very nice. A Blog, it's just a short story about you. It just tells people a little about you. I have been in to computers for quite a while, but missed the begining of the "Blog" thing, so I had to figure it out.
I to have dealt with depression and anxiety issues for the last 7 years, but now I am taking a much more active role in dealing with it. For a long time I just tried to medicate it, the problem was it doesn't go away like that, I found I need to do the work.
This site is a tremendous help with that, tools, feedback and your not alone anymore. You have full time access to people that understand and care. In my recent past I was looked down on for being "weak" but thats not the case. There are reasons we suffer, but I feel we don't have to if we learn and participate.
Nice to meet you.
I have been putting off my exposure work, I think since it scares me.
Today I needed to to shop, so i drove to the store and it wasn't bad. I thought about driving this morning to the train and chickened out. So I walked in the pouring down rain.
I could simply drive that half mile, park for free and take the train downtown. But it's on a busier street, there is a traffic signal and it puts me in a situation that I am stuck in. If that makes sense, I have no safety net in this situation at certain points.
I need to move past this, I need to be able to drive anywhere, it is really limiting my potential.
