    Hello World, is anybody out there? Its me, Persephony

    Hi! I've spent most of my life battling anxiety and panic attacks. I've never been diagnosed or treated (too scared to tell anyone >.<), choosing to try and tackle it on my own. The last year or so I thought I had rid myself of, or even grown out of, it; however, it has recently come back with a vengeance. Thankfully, a blog on Tumblr gave me this site as a resource. I really hope I can find some ways to get a handle on my life again. Thanks for having me around (:

    im here, but most people would still say that equals nobody =p

    in my non-expert opinion i think you can definitely overcome anxiety by yourself, ive made leaps and bounds and have had no specific help with it. in fact the few counselors that ive told barely understood what it was.

    anyway good luck and welcome
