I may have just cured my anxiety…

Kate

      Okay listen up everyone, I may have made some sort of awesome scientific breakthrough… I have severe anxiety problems. I’m paranoid, stupid things scare me or make me panic, such as zombies, the dark, conversations I had 12 years ago, conversations I had 2 minutes ago, giving off the wrong impression, giving the right impression at the wrong time, worrying about missed opportunities, what the future might now hold. Pretty much everything really. So, my life is going along, dealing with anxiety in the only way I know; deep breaths, meditate, exercise (ha), deal with it. I’m … Continue reading I may have just cured my anxiety…

What is this pain?

Kate

I do not know what this pain is. I’m unsure if it is psychological or if I am suffering from one of these chronic pain disorders that seem to be surfacing recently. I do not doubt that many people suffer, daily, from invisible illnesses but because many are ‘invisible’ it’s difficult to determine who is telling the truth and who may be using it as an excuse. I was given the diagnosis of Fibromyalgia a few years ago but with regular exercise my symptoms decreased. Does this mean I do not have Fibro or that regular exercise can in fact … Continue reading What is this pain?
