There it is again, that churning feeling in your stomach, it's like riding on a roller-coaster that is in a constant downward motion, a roller-coaster without the highs only the lows. Fuck, it's an uncomfortable ride. Here's the deal, I promise to be 100% honest in what I say in this book. No bullshit stories about sudden epiphanies that miraculously healed my body, mind and soul. No farcical smoothie recipes that cleansed my body of anxiety within 8hrs and had me skipping through the daisies spreading peace, love and joy to all the next day. I definitely wont bore you with the countless number of supplements, creams, oils, tea's and alternative medicines recommended to calm my central nervous system and bring my dysregulated body some well deserved fucking rest. Well, I might tell to a few things that worked and didn't work for me but I promise that I wont pretend I know all the answers. I do know that the journey is not a one size fits all. I know that no amount of scrolling through social media videos will give you the reassurance your seeking, or will point you in the direction of the quiet place your looking for. I can if you allow, show you that there is a way forward. There is a room for hope, and that there will be better days ahead. I cant promise that you'll wake up one day and be completely free from the shackles that keep you tethered to that bastard flight or fight mode but I will tell you that even if your stuck there right now you will survive it.
