Do you wake up in the morning feeling like you just can't face the day? Perhaps you feel 'trapped' in a situation or struggle to leave the house? Do you often wonder how you will face the people in your life or what you should say to them?  Maybe its the vibrating or panicky feeling of anxiety in certain situations that makes you want avoid things or want to withdraw. Maybe you just don't find the same fun in things or people or have developed your own 'unhelpful' habits and strategies to help you avoid places or situations in your life?  You may be facing life without someone you were close to or have lost something you held dear to you.  Perhaps, you simply can't work out why you don't have any motivation or confidence to deal with the things you used to take in your stride? It's sometimes hard to put your finger on what 'it' actually is; sometimes, it just helps to talk to someone who isn't personally involved.  Other times we know full well and the more people ask you 'Are you ok?' the more tempting it is to push them away.  What do they know and who would they tell if they did know how you really felt? What I can tell you now is that whatever it is YOU are feeling, however big or small it feels to  you, you will not be the only person in the world to have felt that way and support is not very far away! To use a popular phrase...It really is 'good to talk!'

You have taken a courageous and very important first step; YOU are reading this now and that means you are ready to face your future.  Sometimes we need to look backwards to understand how certain situations in the here-and-now have come about, often we can move forward from just where we are now.  Our first 1/2 hour is free so Welcome to SolidEarth Online Counselling.
