please do.
I suffer from anxiety, and it runs in my family. I didn't realise how bad it was until my husband pointed it out, I had been burying my head in the sand up until that point. We wanted to start a family, and I didn't want my anxiety to affect our child, so I went. They were brilliant, and arranged CBT for me. That was 2 and a half years ago, and I'm in a much better place. It is such a relief to say to my now DH 'of course it's fine if you pop down the pub for a pint after work' , and to enjoy that time at home by myself, instead of spending the whole time worrying about would he get home OK. It's made me a lot happier, and I'm determined not to let our ds see me like that again. I know it depends on your doctor,and I am by no means cured, but I'm taking steps in the right direction.
