I Just Needed To Believe And I Did!

New York, byA once scared woman now living her dreams in perfect health and happiness.
I want to take this opportunity to give thanks to all of the inspirational stories and to everyone who has made this journey amazing.
I’ve spent my whole life dealing with severe anxiety and depression. If anything was wrong with my body I assumed it was the worst and would spend countless nights worrying.
Fast forward to a month ago where everything in my life turned upside down. Family problems, I was constantly sick and work was non stop.
My body was in constant pain and I did not know why. I looked up every symptom and imagined it was the worst possible thing. Finally I got health insurance through my job and booked a doctors appointment. I was filled with constant dread and suffered numerous panic attacks about the upcoming doctors appointment. It was to the point where I was missing a lot of days from work because I was afraid to face the day.
I accidentally sent a message to a friend I have not spoken to in years that was meant for my sister, about how I felt hopeless and don’t know how I can ever feel better. He asked if I ever read The Secret and I told him I haven’t. He said to give it a shot.
I finished the whole book in less than a day and watched the movie constantly.
I believed that I was perfectly healthy, and strong and that when I went to my doctors visit I would be told that I am perfectly healthy and everything is fine
Lo an behold, I just went to my doctors visit and everything came back normal! I am perfectly healthy! It was just my stress causing the feelings. Once I let go of the negative thoughts and believed I was healthy I was!
I feel amazing and am so grateful for that fateful day I “accidentally” messaged my friend.
Even without knowing it, I was using The Secret to bring me help and it did by bringing me in contact with an old friend who told me to read this book.
