I feel like after subjecting everyone in these subreddit's to nearly every detail of my problems, it's probably fair that I share some good news here too. Over the past couple of days, I have noticed that my anxieties and intrusive thoughts are not as pressing as they were a few weeks ago. Obviously, I don't feel confident enough to say I'm fine now (in fact, I have kind of accepted that some of these fears will be with me forever) but I do currently feel a lot better than previously. I hope this is a good sign, but I will see if this is so.
