An inspiring post from one of our followers: Today I had a huge anxiety attack! Big one in fact! My chest got tight, I could just about breathe! The tingles were like huge vibrations around my body. I was semi conscious and my eyes could barely stay open! During these times I would usually think oh god Im gonna die or oh god its happening again you know? The usual racing thoughts! But this time was different! Instead of fighting off these horrible feeling symptoms....I let it happen! I thought to myself give me the worst you got anxiety! And there lay, almost passed out at work! Every time an intrusive thought came along I let it pass like a cloud. Is that the best this anxiety disorder can do, youre gonna have to do better than that! As another thought came, I let it be. It wasnt gonna get a reaction out me anymore. I came round and I sat up. As I looked up I saw my work colleague! I grinned and simply said you alright mate? And we both laughed! A security guard from the shopping centre I was working at who had had to come to me before for an attack just looked at me! And I said oh god its you again and we laughed. I took the worst anxiety has like a beast. And here I sit, not phased typing this message to you. As anxiety disorder sufferers, we constantly try to fight it. And every time we lose! And I did the same. But today I called it on and stared this disorder right in the face! And yeah granted. I got tingles and felt really faint and that. But I will get right back up. And if it chooses to try and drag me down again! Let it try. Because I will get up....again...and again and again. Just like everyone on this page does. But do you guys realise how strong you are! You have huge symptoms, and still survive! Still face the day! And for this I respect you. The true warriors of the mental battle everyone fights everyday. Anyways I digress. I hope those who look at this realise that they have the power to take everything anxieties got like the strong people that they are! Because if I can. So can anyone.
