Our site Anxiety Depression Help, was set up to assist you to understand, cope with and overcome this terrible affliction.

Having personally suffered major anxiety attacks, bouts of depression and suicidal tendencies in the past, I can understand your plight only too well.

Many years ago I lost my mother to breast cancer. Being an only child my mother was everything to me and although we had time to prepare for her death it still hit me like a thunderbolt. However; I was unable to mourn at the time of my mothers passing as my father was distraught and close to emotional breakdown. I had to remain strong for him and so I put up this front, this facade of being able to cope.

It was many months when the anxiety and depression crept into my life, in fact it was closer to 11 months after my mothers death.

I suddenly realised that my mother had passed away almost 1 year ago and as it was the day before my daughters second birthday the date was even more vivid.

I broke down there and there and I can’t recall much after that. Many months passed and I was placed under medical supervision on a number of occasions. Still I couldn’t see through my shawl of darkness that had been placed over and around me.

I thought “this is as good as my life will ever be”. The depression became worse and it split our family up. We almost lost the house, I had already lost my job; we were destitute unless something amazing changed”

One day, I simply woke up with a strange desire to understand what was wrong with me, I wasn’t looking for a cure or a magic alixir, just a simple understanding of how this dreaded thing had taken control of me and worse still my whole life.

As if by magic I was introduced to hypnosis, self-hypnosis and the power of visualisation.

There was no magic pill;  the doctors had already tried prescribing those with no effect, no the answer lay within and the only way to get to my problems was through the use of a proficient therapist and the tools he prescribed.

Within a matter of weeks my life changed dramatically, where I once saw grey, i saw colour once more, where once the sound of wildlife was annoying, I began to stop and listen to the beautiful sounds created.

Here I am today content with life and still in awe at this beautiful thing god has provided us - Life… not just life but the option to control our own life through inner thought and daily activities.

I hope my brief story has empowered you to seek your own solution to anxiety, stress and depression. There are many people out there just waiting to help you and there is also a mass of products, tapes, books, video, DVD, audio etc. That will help you to begin living life again and not to me controlled by this limiting force.
