picked on in social gatherings

i get picked on quite often. it's all meant to be in fun but it makes me feel like i did when i was a kid. maybe everyone's picking on everyone and i'm just sensitive to it. probably why a never felt comfortable to begin with in groups.

anyone else feel like they are the target of jokes...

tired of feeling this way

Re: Chest Heaviness

yes i get this, hate that feeling. i find the best thing to do is every time you feel that way get busy doing something or get your mind on something else. even if you have to do that 100 or 1000 times in one day, over time it will go away without you even realizing it. (a doc taught me that when i ...

Re: feeling successful from week 2

what Mandabear wrote here helps a lot.
I still get anxious before I do it. I feel sweaty, spacey and dizzy, but once I do it it is not as bad as I thought and afterward I feel better because I am proud that I did something that had been so scary.
reminds me it's ok to have those feelings.

finally admitting I have a problem with depression

I guess i've always known it and learned in the program that people with anxiety tend to have depression, but i've always just blown it off and looked at myself as just being anxious. But now i realise a lot of the beating myself up over the years has been due to my depression. Like why am i unmotiv...
