Well there is no point really in being scared about something that you might decide to do. You may just decide not to do it, don't you think?

As for your anxiety, don't worry I have had SP all my life and sometimes I also feel I'm going to become mad, but so far it hasn't happened (at least that is what I believe ) That feeling usually comes when I spend too much time inside my house, it's not SA itself but the side effects of it, like not being engaged in any activity or hobby, not going outside, not moving enough, not having anything to look forward to.

A simple walk can be beneficial at times. Better still is to make a plan for some type of activity, preferably one that is directly related to any problem that you may have. I usually feel much better if I know that I am at least attempting to solve a problem, and note that it doesn't matter so much if you succeed or not.

Yea it can be really hard dealing with anxiety but you will learn to cope with it and there no close doors.There is always be opportunity for change.You're not going to go mad or insane.Every one have had those thoughts like that once in a while.I know its hard but try not to fixate on these thoughts.Find things you are interested in.Get a hobby.Take a walk.Just try and not let those thoughts take over your life.

You should stick around read post from other people and see how the handle there problem.You will learn something and you might feel better.

Good luck melly06 I hope you feel better in the future.

be carefull dont let the thoughts take you over, keep tring to change to another thought. We all wonder where this will lead, i call it a "circle thought" it keeps going around in your head to nowhere, get focused on something eles, and gain a friend or two through these sites. Thats why we are here. : ) betty
