How to deal with anxiety?

Hi there, I’ve been living with anxiety for a long time... on and off getting better but not enough to deal with certain things.

Any free counseling is welcomed.

Thanks

My anxiety comes and goes. I can go long times with no issues, and other times its almost debilitating. I hid it from my loved ones for YEARS. One of the most profound things I did one night was break down in tears and tell my wife and my father that I had been suffering from this for so long. It really helped me to get it off my chest, and gave me a support system. I was lucky that they were both very understanding and supportive. It also helps me to try and reach out and help other people with it. It kind of puts it in perspective for me when I get with people who suffer like I do. Hope this helps and I hope things clear up for you, I really do. I know what its like.

you may want to check with the site administrators and see what they offer around counselling, other than that there are so many of us here with similar situations, I find that just sharing with others who are going through similar things helps me a lot.
