Anxiety Support Group
Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
for the past month I’ve been doing pretty good with handling my anixity and panic. This past week or so I’ve been back to overthinking, putting myself down, nitpicking over every little thing. I’m working on not doing these things and trying to think more positively.
Part of my problem is that I have no one to really talk to. I feel like if I had that one person I trusted I wouldn’t be such a mess. I write in a journal a couple times a week it does help, but it only goes so far.
This past year I’ve been working to improve myself, mentally, physically and spiritually. It’s taken sometime, but I do feel like I’m making the right steps to keep moving forward. Everyday is a battle. I constantly care what everyone thinks I work 10x harder to make them only think “positive” things about me it’s pathetic. On the outside I have this “I don’t care what you think” attitude, but inside I care.
Thank you all for listening it really means a lot ❤️

I did the dumbest thing today. I charged my earbuds, unplugged the block and put the block in my little bag instead of the earbuds. I wasn't happy about that when I got to the gym. What a dummy!

Ever since I stopped doing therapy because of insurance, I've been feeling that old tense and irritable sense of anxiety and stress. I hate that. I was making so many strides and changes during therapy, my therapist would acknowledge all of my progress and accomplishments, and I miss that reassurance. Today I thought about it, and I made those changes! She would always tell me that I chose to...
This is a good place to vent and get support. We're here for each other. If you need to talk or vent, I'm happy to listen, as are others. God bless you.

I only suffer from it occasionally when my PTSD flares up, but someone I love has a lot of anxiety and I know how much she struggles with it. It is good that you can come here and get out these feelings.
DS is a great place for reading others post to help you not feel alone or to learn new tools to help you with coping.
triple hugs of support.
May sound cliche', but in my personal experience, the busier you get (with work, or school, relationship, kids, your family members, etc), and the older you get... you don't really care much or think much about what other people are thinking about you anymore. Chances are, other people aren't thinking negatively about you. People are too consumed with their own stuff to care that much what you're doing every second.
I'm trying to write all of this in a positive way, hope it's coming out that way :)
