"Anxiety is not just for Christmas!"

A few years ago I was going round in a circle of depressed about being anxious and anxious about being depressed. I got to go for CBT a few years ago and this gave me my life back, but (is it there always a but! ) I hit a wall again for one reason or another & while I tried to use what I learned before I just couldn’t get out of the hole I was in, hand on heart the best thing I did was to ask for help, as in more CBT. mind you I had to ask a number of times to be referred but I got there in the end and I have to say everyone I dealt with have been so lovely. Yes, it’s hard to admit you have anxiety, but you know what it’s a whole lot better than lying on a couch with no interest in anything, afraid to go out of the house etc. 

I’ve just finished my sessions with Eugene in Sligo & all I will say is Bless him, long may he do the great work he does. So if you have anxiety or are depressed, ask for help, it’s excellent, don’t worry about anything else but getting your life back on track, as they say “your life, your journey”.
