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...
Hi! Long story short I never had any anxiety until I became a parent. Then had normal "new mom" worries but everyone said I was a helicopter mom.
In 2019 my stepson passed away (suddenly and tragically)....now I struggle with PTSD (never thought I had this until I spoke with my therapist) and anxiety. I'm a walking worrier over everything so badly I can't relax.
I've been searching for a group I can chat with online since I'm not near any in person groups.

My sister-in-law called yesterday. She had some bad news about her job and wanted to let me know that they are coming for a visit at the end of October. Then she went on and on and on about her job! She only calls about 3 times a year so I didn't want to cut her off but I didn't have an hour and forty-five minutes to spare. I barely got a word in edgewise. Why don't people realize when...

Sometimes, I think I have ODD. I can be oppositional. It seems that the only times that I feel like cleaning are when I should be doing something else or I have to go somewhere.

I didn’t want to come onto DS for the first time and unload. I feel like what’s happened is so continuous of negative things that it’s almost hard to believe.
But I know I’m order for me to move forward I have to get it all off of my chest and I can’t do that talking to family/friends which is why I needed a support group (so thankful for you guys!!!!)
I’m the type of person that I only worry and think about others and put my problems aside to help others. This also might be part of the reason I haven’t dealt with my own issues…..I’m trying to fix everyone around me first.
So in time I might journal or write what’s been going on the last 2.5 years…..but for now, thank you for your kids words and support with anxiety. I hope that you all know you can message me or reach out anytime if you just want to chat, vent, become ds friends, etc.
it sure makes a difference having someone to talk to other than family.
