Depression and Anxiety pull you right down into the dumps where you will most likely experience your lowest points in life. Hurt, pain, and suffering have taken over your life. It’s so hard for you to see past the pain you are in. You can’t smile or be happy any longer. Your energy is drained beyond belief and being around people is too much for you.
You retreat into your own world where a voice in your head doesn’t stop talking. The only way to quiet the voice is to get into bed, pull the covers over your head and disappear into the darkness and sleep. It’s a lonely place to be in and you don’t realise how deep you are getting into it.
Nerves take over when you are out of your comfort zone. The feelings become overwhelming creating further anxiety leading to panic attacks. Your body shakes and sometimes even goes into spasms. Your chest closes up and your heart beats faster creating heart palpitations.
You struggle to focus and feel fatigued most of the day. It takes a lot of your energy to concentrate. In meetings or presentations at work, you are scared to talk for the fear of using the wrong words. In your head, you know what you want to say, but it all comes out wrong.
Due to this concerns and questions arise as to whether other people will notice your anxieties and your panic. You feel you are not good enough or smart enough. You start minimising yourself and thinking they all have more experience than you or more degrees than you. And as you panic, your mouth dries up. You know inside you are shaking while hoping no one else can see your panic inside of you.
Doctors tell you that you have anxiety and depression and you want to believe you have it all together but it’s time to face facts that you don’t. You eventually realise that the medicines they give you don’t even help as much as you’d like them to.
There is a void that needs to be filled and you have no idea what it is. All of this causes you to feel stuck with no purpose. A constant question running through your mind is, ‘what is my purpose?’ or something similar.
I have been through it all, I understand it and have lived it for many years. Healing was a journey I took on my own and through my growth, I then found these tools that helped me to overcome my depression and anxiety and skyrocketed me to new levels I never expected I’d ever experience.
Stop waiting until your absolute lowest point in life before getting any help. Happiness, feeling content, free, independent, and whole again are what you deserve. Believing in yourself is possible because there is hope in this world. There is potential in living a fulfilled life again just as many of my clients are now experiencing from when they first walked in with depression and anxiety.
