12 weeks ago I was introduced to an idea to change and eventually control my anxiety and depression which I honestly gave little chance of success
My two nurses Sheila and Amanda were absolutely brilliant they with a lot of effort and commitment to my well being and mood they managed to make me engage with the program through there guidance I started to fill out schedule sheets and plans for my week until we met again when they with me involved checked to gauge my level of success on no occasion were the negative they focused on the positive and helped me understand what I was involved in and that only I could make it work(not true, they with their attitude and skill made me want to succeed)
They helped me by introducing my own problem solving and controlling ruminating so to keep a clear path and stay positive even on a regular visit to my GP we discussed what had been happening and she commented that she could see a clear improvement
I could not have been easy for Sheila and Amanda but want to thank them for there determination and support for me to be successful using the program
I am not cured but now have some weapons to fight back
Thankyou all for your help
