You dont beat it honey but sometimes it can calm down for a few months but it will alwaus be there in my opinion i can go about 4/5 months without anxiety then boom something will trigger me and start me feeling all the fears and feelings believe it or not i was on 37.5mg venlafaxine last thursday last 2 days ive been on 300mg its a huge dose i know but these r slow releasing pills and r doing me wonders st the moment for how long i dont know fingers crossed its for a while again i just keep blocking out the bad thoughts in my head its so hard but ive been saying to it come on do ur worst and it seems to subside aswell.also ive downloaded a app on my phone called anxiety and this app has someone talking u through your attack sounds daft but its helped me out im just trying to push all the bad thoughts from my mind and say to myself you can do this ive passed it before i will pass it again

I'm so scared that I can't get better because of obsessive thoughts. I'm afraid of anxiety. Can't find the right help. I don't want to live like this

Do you know your triggers what starts you off..mine was death since losing my mum I spiralled out of control...also anxiery and racimg thoughts is horrible it stops you living your everyday life its so overwhelming isnt it...nobody wants or deserves to live our lives like this firstly you need to identify your triggers then you will a coping stragedy which takes your mind from over thinking..

Pm if you want to I know what your going through honey
