Post your sucesses!

[HeavyMetalDude]

I think this section needs something uplifting. Its time we posted some of our triumphs and sucesses great and small. Instead of focusing on how hard it is to live with panic/anxiety disorder focus on what you are doing to make it better

Post whatever you want to! It could be a long story about you overcoming something or something simple like "today I faced my fear of snakes by looking at them in the pet store". It does not matter, whatever can be positive, uplifitng and an inspiration to others!

I was disparate more than 16 years ago and I started to smoke, In Egypt it's very usual to smoke, and Egypt is considered the second largest country after Pakistan in smoking rates.
I tried hundreds of times to quit, but I couldn't, about a year ago I had an idea, I started to sing any lovely anthem (Holy song for the Lord) when I feel the need to smoke.
I sang secretly in my mind or with high voice if I was alone.
After two weeks the appetence to smoke was weakened and my hopes arouse more and more and after one year, with God's will I knew I quit them finally, Thank God.​

Today I went for a walk which was not a smart idea with the heat we are having. (I'm not used to heat so for whatever reason it makes my heart race) I walked around in the shade to calm myself down and then walked the two laps I came outside to do once I felt better.

I am feeling better. I want to join a Christian group and help people too. Please pray for me.

Today I went on the freeway in a car (my friend was driving) and I sucessfully went 2 exits. I was kinda scared but once we merged it was not so bad. It was uncomfortable, but not terrible.

Did the freeway thing again and I did even better. I was a lot calmer and relaxed!
