And my mom told them my background and they were like, why didn't you tell us?

And I said, well, I didn't want to be, you know, I didn't want to.

So that's when I was like, okay, I need to get help for this.

I did, yeah.

I went to my doctor, explained everything that was going on.

I was happy to accept an anti-anxiety and done a bit of counselling.

Counselling wasn't for me.

I'm a talker anyways, like I talk to people sometimes.

but that's not to say it doesn't help it definitely did help you know help me but I didn't feel like I needed to continue it because I had like my friends and my family and all that side of things but the medicine I definitely needed help with and to this day I still take it and it's the best decision I've ever made Wow very good yeah yeah this is the thing people need I know and it's okay to say

I'm happy to if anyone comes to me and you know ask about my experience and that's why I was delighted to come here today to talk about it because the sibling you don't yeah yeah hear a lot or I because I looked online and I looked online and then I found your podcast and your support groups and I just it really helped so I have no problem in saying that I took the medication route because yeah it's just brilliant like yeah now I don't I don't forget them I'm not numb yeah

I still cry.

And I feel and I'm sad and I'm happy and I'm angry, but I'm physically feeling a lot better.

Yeah.

And I want to still have the emotions, the highs, the lows.

But to days where I physically wasn't able to get out of bed, that's not experiencing the highs and the lows and going through

this pain in my chest, this heaviness.

Yeah.

And like that, I would, a comforting, you know, I'd sit like this and I wouldn't even realise I'm doing it or like I'd, you know, put my hand on my top and just rest it on my chest.

And even to this day, I'll find myself sometimes doing it, but I don't have the heaviness or the pain in my chest.
