I had an endoscopy today, and because I'm such a worrier my heart was racing in the lead up to it. I decided against sedation as I was worried of dying from it. But then I was worried about how uncomfortable it will be. I couldn't relax at all. Then in the waiting room i watched this. It honestly SAVED MY DAY! I just accepted that this is what is happening and this is just how it is. And suddenly I was calmer than I had been for days. THANK YOU SO MUCH! I don't know how I would have survived today without this podcast! It turned out my health anxiety was right this time and I have some stomach inflammation. And the doctor said it is likely caused by stress. I said I'm working on it but it's not easy. I have been really working through the book, the online programme and the podcasts. And I see almost magical improvements, but then terrible rebounds. Which nearly make me loose faith. But I keep trying!
You are truly a wonderful experienced person on this topic. I’m so thankful that I found you. I hope to pass along your invaluable information on to others. I find you unique, specialized, and a neuroscientist, going through this yourself and your ability to explain the experience of anxiety, trauma, worry, what it is, how to work with it is excellent and in my opinion sets you apart. Thank you so much.
Came to Colorado 8 years ago to start over. These people have been taught to hate me before I got here. I can't even access decent medical, mental health or housing. I have faith in myself, but everything depends upon other people, you can't live on the US as an island. I don't interact with anyone kind. I am being shunned into the grave. Oh well, it's only me and I obviously don't have any value. Time to go
Just love them anyway. And find somewhere in your plan, a step you Can take and go from there. Never give up on you. PS start reading your Bible. It refreshing your spirit everytime you read it.
@chasitynunnery5694 I've been sacrificing and turning the other cheek for years! These people do not deserve my kindness, Im throwing my pearls to pigs to trample. This is so typical, I can tell how you were brought by your name. I will do Christianity the way the Lord leads me, and you keep your self righteousness to yourself.
