Throughout my childhood, I was no stranger to the doctor's office. My mother tried everything she could in hope of a breakthrough. There were times when I thought suicide could be the only way to make the pain stop.
By age 16, I had parties shut down socially. Most of my peers were going to parties, playing sports, and dating. But I was a prisoner in my own home.
Then one Sunday morning, my wakeup call came from a magazine article. Freddie Prinze, Jr. , was on the cover. The article detailed the pain of losing his father at a young age.
I felt as though I were reading my own life story. The only difference? He was now a success.
That article inspired me to explore a new treatment option for myself.
I wanted to turn my life around as well.
So I hit the library and the Internet,and I began to realize how my negative thoughts controlled my physical wellbeing.
Immediately, I made a plan to take charge of my life. Shortly after following the items I had listed, I was able to stop seeing a therapist.
I never returned to high school, but I did go to college. After graduation, I pursued a career in television news. My relationships have changed for the better, too. I've made new friends and reconnected with many from my past.
The anxiety
isn't completely gone,
but whenever it returns, I know the feeling will pass, and know I have the power to change my life, only if I give myself a chance.
