Ghosts of an anxious past.

I'm seeing ghosts. But they're all me. I can't sleep. Every night I am up until 4am, burnt out and collapsing to sleep. I'm waking up near enough to midday and that spikes my anxiety because half of the day has gone and nothing has been done. I can't stop thinking. I said in my … Continue reading Ghosts of an anxious past. →

In October I started counselling. I’d been a couple of times before but hated it. It made me more nervous and I would come out worse than I had gone in. I was asked to go back after a really bad spell of anxiety. This made my anxiety worse, but I was told that I … Continue reading I went back to counselling… →

As a kid I never had many friends and those that I had often decided that actually that girl over there with the long, blonde … Continue reading Hello. →
