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...
I have been shocked in this year when I knew that I was deceived by someone who was supposed to be honest with me. He lied to me for so many years, actually more than twenty years. So, when I found out that he was a liar, I really got shocked and fell apart. I have been so broken for ten months, I feel I am useless and hopeless. In the last couple of weeks, my anxiety has gone up so high that I can't even sleep as usual - struggling to sleep. I have opened up my heart to some people and they were not understanding, saying that 'I am causing myself all this anxiety and feeling of loss', and that actually made it harder on me. I am feeling loneliness, it is really killing me...

Years ago, I won a mirrored armoire from my job. It's in my bedroom but I rarely stand in front of it. Yesterday, I had to have a dexascan done so I had to change into a gown.

You've made these changes. Make some other changes to improve your well-being.
You are not responsible for what others do or say. You, however, are responsible for your reaction, and your response.
Put your well-being first, and move on.
I can relate to this. I've been betrayed & lied to by so many people I don't know who to trust anymore. Are there even any good people left in the world?
"I have opened up my heart to some people and they were not understanding, saying that 'I am causing myself all this anxiety and feeling of loss', and that actually made it harder on me. I am feeling loneliness, it is really killing me..."
I completely understand this & can relate as well. It is mean & cold of those people to say that you are causing yourself the pain, when clearly the wounds have been inflicted long before - you are simply dealing with the aftermath & they are not being very supportive & encouraging. Try to find people that you can talk to that will understand & not judge. Like me.
Loneliness is the worst. I've tried to explain to some people close to me - it literally feels like I am dying on the inside. That is how it feels. I am so sorry that you are experiencing this pain. Please know at least you are not the only one.
