Hi Guys
I can say that I am fully recovered for a full 2 weeks now. No symptoms of anxiety, dp/dr or depression. So yep it is possible.

Now I want to know this, I have always had vision problems when anxiety hit but this has all gone away & now it seems that I have this bright camera flash spot in my left eye only. You know like the after flash you get from looking at the camera? well I have had this for 2 days now & well I'm getting a bit worried, a little anxious.

I'm going to optometrist tomorrow & as usual I am telling myself it is just anxiety but at the same time I am like what if it isn't should I prepare myself for an eye operation?

Could you guys prepare me for what to expect?

Well I didn't go to the optometrist because by the afternoon after having the spot for 2 days it disappeared. It must have been a precursor to the small amount of anxiety I am having now. I think I am a little run down & need a rest.

By the way, recovery came when I just said, ok, I don't give a shit, you can do whatever you want to me dp/anxiety/obsessions cause you know what, I'm still here & still living & I am just going to go on & enjoy my life as best I can knowing that you guys are just symptoms of a recoverable illness. That is part of how I eventually recovered.

But guys, there are no real tips other than focus outwards & give it time. The more time you focust outwards, the less time you will think about your symptoms & the less it will become a habit. Once you step out of the way of trying to figure things out & you just sit there & experience the horror & realise it is just a feeling, jsut anxiety then over time it will disappear. But just cause you stop thinking about it doesn't mean it goes away over night, that is just the start.
