I'm Sinking

Have you ever fell in a pool or momentarily lost your breath underwater?

Because I have.
When I was around 4 years old, I was on holiday in Greece with my parents and the weather was extremely hot so we decided to stay around the pool by our apartment for the day. However, I couldn't swim so I kept my distance from the pool. Unfortunately I couldn't control the water that was on the ground around the pool and I slipped and fell in. My mum acted as quick as she could and dove in to save me. It wasn't traumatic or anything, because during the summer these days you can hardly get me out of the water. But that isn't to say it wasn't scary.
Being only able to see one colour, hearing nothing but my pounding heart in my chest. To this day I despise silence. 

But anyway that's not the point. My point is anxiety isn't that different. Don't ever, ever, ever tell anyone that it isn't a real thing. It may not look like it on the outside, but on the inside the sufferers world is basically dissolving with every second that passes

NOW IT'S YOUR TURN

Have any of you had an experience with this?

Any advice on how to help?

Post it in the comments.

....Hi!

Hi there!
So it seems you have stumbled upon this mess I'm going to call my blog!

As you can see in my 'About Me' in the sidebar (Pssst, it's here ------->)

That I've wanted to do this for a while now, And believe me, when I say a while.. I mean about 6 years.

"So, then why didn't you start a blog?"

Well, crazy voice in my brain, I never knew what to write about and now that I am finally reaching young-adulthood (yay for being able to buy alcohol in 2 months!) I have somewhat of an idea what this blog will be.

It's going to be me. Well not me exactly, but my feelings and emotions printing out in whatever theme I chose for my blog. I'm going to type out my thoughts, opinions and feelings and force them upon the poor souls who happen to discover this blog.

However, along the way, I hope I can be that friend that some of you want, need or never had. I'll be the giggly teenage girlfriend you always wanted that will help you with your problems. I'll be the one you can turn to for help. Whether it's be about anxiety, sexuality issues, gender identity, shyness or simply choosing which outfit to wear on a date! I'll try my very best to help out whoever I can!

I'm not a super-duper qualified therapist or anything but I feel that another amateur will be able to comfort you a tad more than a fuddy-duddy therapist (I'm not disrespecting anyone because I am eternally grateful to them, but this blog is more about comfort than professionalism).

I hope you'l join me on this journey and that I can help some of you with your issues or even if you just want someone to talk to!

All my social networking links are in the sidebar or my Blogger profile, so feel free to talk to me on those.
