Hi everyone.

Hi,
I'm new, but have posted a couple of threads.
I struggle with anxiety but try to live my life as best l can. I would like to be able to manage my anxiety a little better.
It is good to be able to connect with others who have similar issues.
Have a good week.

Hi ecomama, and blondguy,
I get some social anxiety if l am in a group of people l don't know very well.

I do tend to catastrophise about things.

I find it hard to take charge of some situations, and tend to let others take the lead....which is something l want to work on.

I use meditation and breathing techniques to manage it.

Regards
Leeroy01.
