Suicide, Not an Answer
I've thought about suicide more times than I can count and I've attempted it several times. Obviously I've never been successful with it but doesn't change the feeling I have of not wanting to be here anymore. I don't believe in an afterlife or religion, for that matter. I was raised by the Bible and went to church every Sunday. But traumatic events have opened my eyes that there's no such thing as God or an afterlife.

Anxiety is our body’s natural response to stress, but it can also get out of control – when our body’s threat-detection system is malfunctioning.

EmCoyEe of the Month
It has been over 18 months now since I have been working from home and I have to say, I have loved every minute of it. As an introvert, it's been a pleasure not going into a hectic call centre office, but getting all comfy and wrapped in blankets on my sofa instead. It's not for everyone, I know, but for someone who loves solitude and peace and quiet, this is just ideal. On the warmer days, however, I have enjoyed sitting in the back garden with my laptop, soaking up the sun. I am lucky enough to have a pond in my back garden with a water feature and an abundance of fish. I cannot overstate how much of an effect the running water and these fish have had on my mental health. When I sit outside beside the pond I feel my anxiety and stress instantly start to melt away. Even though I am working and answering emails etc, my concentration is on the relaxing tones of the babbling waterfall and the occasional splashes of the fish playing at the water's surface.
