Anyone who has come to Perspective has known the process of overcoming problematic anxiety.

Anxiety can be complex and messy, full of patterns and deep internal reactions on all sensory levels.

I created the anxiety programme at Perspective for myself back in the day for my anxiety that kept me shackled and frozen.

It shows up in many ways at Perspective...overthinking, sweating, shaking, overwhelm, upset, angry, nausea, vomiting, fainting, not wanting to go to school or socialise, low confidence, panic and low mood are just some.

It can change, you are having a response to something and together in peer support, on the anxiety programme, if we listen, you can heal.
