sup people I have never done this kind of thing before and am freaking out
anyway I haven't really been diagnosed with anxiety but I definitely have the symptoms and I hate it so much and I cant really tell anyone I know because my life is stuffed up. but anyway its been about a year since it started and surprisingly no one seems to care I mean at the start people kind of noticed and sort of cared but after a little while they got sick of it and stopped caring. I feel bad for expecting other people to care about my problems.

Hi this_is_me5225.... unfortunately people seem to care only for a short while with anxiety. What they can't see in the way it affects our lives becomes short lived in them trying to understand. After a while they turn a deaf ear onto our excuses or complaints. People can't care about something they don't understand. It's a lonely disorder. I glad to see you found the forum for support and understanding. We do care
Agora1 is right about finding people who care here. Sharing is caring.
What you really do need is a discussion with a mental health professional who has the time and the expertise to help you. Other caring people from your family and friendship group can join the support team.
I'm' scared to do that though seriously I'm almost in grade twelve I know what I want to do and I know how to get there but every time I think about doing something about it I start freaking out. I'm like the shiest person you'll ever meet. though I may not seem like it on here I definitely am. on here I'm hiding behind a screen no one knows me.
I believe your shyness. I was something of an introvert myself.
Revealing something about yourself here is a good start :).
For things to change or improve, you will need to do some self help (take some online learning or read some of the books recommended by our readers) or take the bigger step of seeing someone, maybe starting with a student counselor at your school.
If you let us know what you can manage and your location, we can offer some suggestions to help get you started.
Welcome to this forum,and let me tell you something we will never get sick of whatever situation you are in ok?we care for your wellness because we are a BIG”family and we will work on things together with you so you overcome you anxiety ok?
I don't think many of us would share this stuff except we need a safe place to turn. I agree that many don't understand how bad things get until they experience even a bit of it. None of us know what someone else is going through even if we have the same "diagnosis." Welcome
Your not alone, I recently joined the group as I was in the same position, I also found I had no one to turn to and ended up avoiding people and didn’t leave the house unless I had to, only people who have suffered from depression and anxiety can understand how it effects you and how it impacts your life, other people just think your being ridiculous and don’t understand how something as simple as going to a restaurant for a meal can be overwhelming,and when you have a meltdown at the thought of going out and socialising they can’t comprehend why it’s such a problem,it’s impossible to make people understand that you can’t help it and that you have no control over how you feel, I used to be a really outgoing and sociable person but I started to feel depressed about a year ago as a result of being in constant pain and suffering from severe insomnia but I convinced myself I’d snap out of it , so by the time I consulted my gp I was suffering from severe depression and anxiety and having constant panic attacks, becoming a member of this community has really helped me knowing others are going through the same thing and being able to express how you are feeling and having the support of people who understand what you are going through makes a huge difference 👍🏻❤️😊
