its been along time since i have been on this chat glad to be back!.
mental health has been good i am manageing to cope with it well although i do still have those debilitating days which leads to agoraphobia but then i get out of it with. my thinking pattern with all my negitive thoughts is 1. acknowledge the thought and alow yourself to feel it for maybe a couple of days and do whatever you need to do to let it out if you need to cry, let it all out. then i do positive self talk, lots of journalling till my mind is abit more retional then i ask myself is this situation helping me ahieve my goal?

Hope you all are well,hanging in there getting all the support you need

I’m doing horrible. Everyday is a war.

You are turning your mind into a battleground with 'IT'. Fighting and struggling only perpetuates anxiety. 'IT' thrives on conflict in the mind, and you are feeding it with fear. Life is only a battlefield if we make it so. What is a war? A conflict between two opposing forces.
Those two forces exist in your mind. One saying all is well and the other in a state of anxiety and doom. No wonder there is a war!!
Wars are destructive, whether on the actual battlefield or in the mind. Can you bring yourself to accept the good and the bad? Rudyard Kipling, the poet, wrote in his poem 'You'll be a Man my son'. 'If you can deal with triumph and disaster, and treat those two imposters just the same, then the world is yours and all that's in it, and what is more you'll be a man my son'. There is a big lesson there. We live in a world of opposites. Everything has it's opposite. Treating those opposites equally with total acceptance is the key. You then become whole again, no more conflict or internal fighting. Being a whole man/woman means there is no internal conflict and thus no war.
