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...
we all know how hard it is to have panic attacks or anxiety over something. As for me I'm having anxiety whenever I'm going to new places or when I'm about to do something new. That's what I noticed. One thing I hate was dealing with my uncle. I'm an only child and my mom is away. So me and dad are together living in the house. My dad is kinda old, he is 60 years old. There was a time when he was hospitalized. One person who helped me facilitate paying of the bills is my uncle. I hate dealing with him because he gets easily mad and he shouts out me and he uses bad words at me when he is angry. Now its 7:30 pm and my dad told me that we might go again to the hospital. I hope I can handle paying the bills at the hospitals and i hope i can take care of the important documents without my uncle's help. I'm under anxiety because i get anxious when I'm doing something all by myself. When I'm having anxiety is blocking my mind to think. Im 27 years old but I have issues when it comes to dependency. I'm very dependent with my parents. But im slowly breaking away because this is for me too. I should learn how to stand on my own. Growing up can be painful you know? Aside from this, I have other responsibilities, i am soon taking my nclex. And i have to have a goverment ID. It will be needed on the day of the exam. I am quite scared of the process on how to obtain the ID at the particular place where i can get it. Because I'm new. Again, as much as possible I dont want to my uncle to be there. I hope I can function alone without being too afraid.
I cope by telling myself that this adversities or hardships that I am facing is what will make me STRONG. I will be shaped into a better person once i overcome this. Somehow I'm proud of myself because despite of all the set backs that i had on the past, I'M STILL HERE! ALIVE!
So for those of you who are afraid please don't be! Face your courage and do one step at a time!

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
Hope is essential to our survival, especially when we are fighting through anxiety. The question is - where do you find hope?
1. Where does it originate from?
2. Where does it guide you?
3. How do you recognize it?
4. Does it need replenishing?
These are all essential to the process and a great thing you have discovered!!!

I really believe you will be able to do all these things on your own and become more and more independent.
I tried to show my sons things before they left home so they had a better idea on how to do things. because when I left home I had no clue. I didn't know about bank accounts and ATM's and things like that.
I have to say I have done many things 'in fear' but have still done them. Just like you things like getting a new i.d or dealing with forms and bills and things like that.
I moved to another country and I had to find out a lot of things through trial and error and the anxiety over things was high and looking back I think how much energy wasted on worry and anxiety.
If it is something new I have gotten a lot better at saying to the person, " I haven't done this before can you help me?" and ask questions.
Asking questions is major because so often the other person may presume. there is a lot of presumption and assumption going on in society. and people very often assume and presume that you have done something a million times before and don't have an idea that perhaps you have never done something before and sometimes are surprised when you tell them that you haven't but they are willing to help.
Recently someone asked me for help and I was able to show them how to use the ATM machine. I knew exactly how it felt not knowing how to do something and I was so happy to help them. And I would hope that most people are wanting to help
US if we are unsure or nervous about something.
Hope is a good thing to hang on to and confidence in yourself grows with each new success.
All the best
