Anxiety, Depression and OCD Specialist
Offering one
to one help in Bristol & Bath-UK.
Welcome to the site and thank
you for visiting. The purpose of this site is two-fold. Firstly,
it's a site created to tell you a bit about myself and what I have
to offer in terms of helping you to overcome your Anxiety,
Depression, or OCD. Secondly and perhaps more importantly, it's a
website offering free practical information to sufferers of these
conditions to aid you in understanding your condition and how you
can go about
overcoming it!
Anxiety disorders are
miserable. I know that because I went through years of serious
anxiety and depression throughout my twenties. Now in my
mid-thirties, I am pleased to report excellent health, and it has
been this way for a good few years now. Why am I telling you this?
Well, because I want you to know that you can recover. It is
possible to recover from anxiety and depression...even serious
anxiety and depression. It is even possible to recover from OCD. The
problem is......as any sufferer will tell you....for the best will
in the world, if you don't know HOW to recover from these
illnesses then we usually end up using an enormous amount of
energy (that we really feel we don't have anyway!) and going
nowhere fast. Recovery therefore really requires understanding.
These conditions are tricky to overcome. Causal factors are often
numerous, and sometimes not obvious to the sufferer. Something I
often remind my clients though is that "Anxiety and depression
doesn't fall out of the sky on us!", by which I mean that we are
nearly always contributing in some way to the day to day continuation of
the disorder. That's not to place blame on a sufferer. It may
well feel to the sufferer as though anxiety falling out of the sky
on us is exactly what is happening, but the recognition that we
are co-creators of these disorders should be welcome news. Why?
Well, it means that you have some measure of control. It means
that there are steps you can take to reduce anxiety and regain
control of your life. This is why understanding is everything with
these difficulties, because once you understand how anxiety is
being maintained on a daily basis then it become possible to make changes and
overcome the condition.
