Hey everyone
So i am new to this forum and about a year ago i was told that i have depression and anxiety. It is something that i have struggle with on and off but at the moment i am finding it quite hard to deal with. I'm just feeling that a part of my life doesn't feel secure and i do tend to worry about this more then i need to.

At least you're aware of it @Farmchick, it means you can begin to change that story about yourself 
The lambs would be amazing to be around, that'd be a magical time of year

One day at a time @Farmchick 
There's no single answer that helps everyone. Have you heard of Jim Kwik? He's been on repeat recently in our youtube playlist and seems like he does a lot of research in that area https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XkviCyYmZ0
