    I always think that, I always try to treat people how I myself would like to be treated. If someone falls over in public I always look away so they don’t feel too embarrassed by everyone staring at them, I always knock somebodies door before I walk in in case they’re busy, and I always give presents with the expectation of them enjoying them and not with the intention to recieve.

    Just some small examples of human selflessness. Maybe if you began to think that everyone treats others how they want to be treated?

    I will tell you with anxiety – which I suffer from myself. When I get an anxious thought (which tend to be rooted around other people as well) I think “hello anxiety”. Simply that. I recognise that anxiety is there, I say hello to it. I acknowledge it. Because just because you’re having an anxious thought, it doesn’t mean that that thought rings true. When you acknowledge it, you’re realising that it’s there in your head, but that it is not reflective of your true self.

    Short but sweet, I hope that helped! Best of luck.

    I think that you should begin to flip you perspective and energies. All the embarrassment and hurt you’re carrying, use it to feed your drive. Use it to FIND your drive, and then use it to feed it.

    You want to be independent? Then Try to figure out ways to make more money, figure out ways to get another job or to move up in your current one, bulk up your savings account, manage your money and solely focus on moving out and becoming independent.

    You have all this energy in you, but if you continue to feed it with negative thoughts, that all you’ll do. create a negative person with no drive or motivation. I know this myself believe me! But if you start to shift your perspective to positive thoughts, by becoming more mindful to your negative ones, realising when you’re putting yourself down and changing the thought, you’ll start to think a little happier, and you’ll start to think “maybe I can do this”, and you’ll begin to find a motivation to succeed where you want to be. It is difficult, but it’s what you’ve gotta do, otherwise you’ll end up not reaching where you want to be.

    Hope it all goes well for you!

    Thank you all so much! I visited my local doctor last night and managed to get a week off work, and I’m quite excited to have some time to sort myself out. I plan on taking the first few days easy – just exercising and doing some research on Paul David and his anxiety advice (Thank you Kevin) – and then using the last few days to try to create some sort of routine for myself when I go back to work. I need to start making the right choices and looking after myself again.

    You’ve all helped me to realise that, and I can’t really thank you enough for helping me when I needed it!
