I have struggled with my condition for long time and it is sometimes a challenge to find out how do I heal? Everybodies pathway to healing is different people don't all like to do the same activities. You have to find out what makes you happy and most importantly what brings me peace and calm. There are many activities you can do to help you relax and keep on a positive pathway. You must find what your passionate about is it cooking a meal for the whole family. It could also be working with tools to build a table. It could be playing sport like soccer or rugby. There are so many wonderful things you can do you just do what your passionate about don't worry about what others think of you. Remember there is only 1 you and we all have our wonderful special gifts that we must harness to the best of our ability so we can shine like a diamond for all to see how special you are. There will be time you will lose confidence in your ability beleive me there where times were I would second guess myself and lack confidence to step out of my shell and face the world and be a powerful positive influence on the world. If you beleive in your heart that you are powerful and you want to change the world no one has the right to be negative and make you feel bad you need to have powerful positive influences in your life that make you feel positive in yout own ability.

I'm someone who self helps. Been through alot. Yet I'm still here. I don't now where to turn for answers yet I'm not one to seek them for myself or my own well being. Always there for others more then myself. I'm just lost always have been. I'm just lost bored & hurting. Always have been. Good or bad it's always the same . I don't talk to anyone as to how I'm feeling as it's my own problems. I don't like to weigh people especially family with my problems. Keep a good face. Also I'd like to believe I'm ok. Thought I'm not I know I'm not. But why I ask. But I'm not one who asks for help.

Hi i'm a 21 year old female and I don't think I am loveable by anyone? i've never had a proper boyfriend and have always had on and off things with men but I feel like I am not attractive to anyone, especially men I find attractive. I always say in my head as soon as I see a man that I find attractive they probably think I am a disgusting slob and could never imagine themselves with a girl like me. Every single person I either pass on the street or see, I start pin pointing every thing I see on them that I don't have. "perfect hair, the ideal figure, a nice fashion sense" the qualities I believe I lack are the ones I see in everyone that passes me. I wish I had that I wish I looked like that I wish I wish, I walk pass a stranger and notice these things so why can I never see them in myself. I know this sounds ridiculous and I understand there are worse things in the world that are going on but thought id see if anyone can help or might even relate to these thoughts and feelings.

Since I was 18, I had an anxiety develop around a deep fear of being home alone at night. 8 years on and it still prevails my life. I recently moved from a share house to alone, knowing this anxiety would be a tough one to beat. However, I am just finding it so exhausting. I am convinced with every bone in my body that something is going to happen to me the minute it goes past 11 o clock or I am trying to sleep. Any noise I hear, I think it is a person, despite usually just being the fridge or whatever, constant intrusive thoughts of someone scarying me, or waiting for me behind the door. I am so so tired of it, I don't recognise the person I become. Does anyone else relate to phobias in general or night time stuff? I feel so alone.

Hi, this is my first time ever doing something like this. Lately, I have been struggling with what emotion I'm supposed to feel. I cry without knowing why I'm crying or breaking down. I get anxiety tics, I've been getting some really bad intrusive thoughts and I don't feel normal. Lately I just space out for long periods of time not thinking about anything, just a blank stare on my face.

I am finding it hard to regulate my moods with anxiety triggered every time I perceive a pressure physically from a procedure I had recently. Even after having my specialist reassure me that all is normal and ok. I also feel grief at not being able to spend time with my young grandson that lives in Sydney. I am not sure whether the two issues are resulting in this awful anxiety and loss of interest in my usual activities. I do exercise and eat a healthy diet. I feel good after swimming but it only lasts a couple of hours. Then the whole dreaded feelings return.I have tried a few psychologists but does not seem to help much. In fact I become more anxious having to talk to them. I am feeling like there does not seem much point in anything. Like I am not useful.Sad Jane
