Hi James, Discovering that you are not alone with AP/BBS is a great feeling isnt it! So well done for finding this site. Its good that you have told your partner, it makes everything so much easier. As for waiting up to an hour before going being pathetic, no its not! Its just one of many little things us sufferes do! Sitting down used be my only hope of going sometimes so dont worry! The good news is that you can now get a hold of this and turn it around. So where exactly do you live? This trust runs workshops in London and Manchester. If you can get to one of them, it will be the best thing you can do trust me! After going on a beginners weekend workshop, my life was turned around! Then a follow up workshop re-enforced everything and gave me even more confidence. If you havent already, email Andrew using the address at the top of the page. I am aware that there are workshops in other countries, but Andrew will know more about them (im sure Andrew will post in this thread soon enough). In the meantime, have a read through as many posts as you can on this board. There are many helpful 'de-sensing' topics with lots of advice. Take care, Mark
