If anyone ever has a chance to just listen I would appreciate it. Sometimes I feel like the best thing I can do is just let out what I’m feeling to someone and just babble on, but my friends don’t usually have time for it or don’t understand it. If u can plz text me. Thx so much. U guys are sooo nice😊
Anyone plz?: If anyone ever has a... - Anxiety and Depre...
Anyone plz?
Like to just talk back and forth.... is there a kind of pm feature on this? I’m still trying to figure it out.
Are you okay? I can listen if to you if you want. My "diagnosis" is clinical depression but I occasionally experience anxiety. I think I'm starting to get social anxiety.
So I didn’t get diagnosed or anything, because my mother thinks I’m just exaggerating so she doesn’t think I need to get it checked out or anything. I have researched quite a bit tho. I learnt breathing exercises and things like that. Also thank god I have a friend that always tries her best to help me. Unfortunately she gets very busy and can’t give me all the time in the world even if she wanted to.
Do you have anything specific that triggers your anxiety?
Breathing exercises, mediating, and exercise are good natural ways to combat anxiety.
So I’m not rly sure yet. Still trying to figure it out. I’m thinking it’s that I think far into the future a lot and it scares me. Like thinking of upcoming tests, or thinking about leaving skl and going on to college, or thinking about bad experiences in my past. Another ting I use for coping is hat I make up songs and poems. Poems mostly. Also I’ll sometimes just sit and write abt anything on my mind.
Have you looked to see if there is an anxiety support group in your area? They are usually free.
Is that like a physical thing u go to? Cuz if yes I can’t. As I said b4 my parents don’t believe me, so they won’t let me go plus I have skl
Hi MimGee, there is always someone here to listen or to talk with. It's a safe place to talk about hard things. You couldn't have found a more supportive, understanding and caring group of people. We welcome you. xx
Hi how old are you please? If legally considered an adult you don't need your parents permission to seek help. Sometimes even if you are considered a mature enough minor you can see a doctor and keep it private. x
I know how you feel. We all need someone to just listen as we vent sometimes. My sholder and ears are open.
That's how I feel too. I always need someone to help me process my day, my week, or just whatever is in my head bugging me right then. So totally get you. I have social Phobia, or social anxiety. You would never know it if you met me in public. At my age, my coping mechanisms hide it well. Believe it or not, I love people. I am just scared of rejection, and people in general. Talk to me anytime. I am an open book of info.
Feel free to message me. I’m happy to listen and understand how friends/family don’t want to hear us. I, myself don’t say anything to anyone close to me because their response has hurt me before or they don’t get it.
Friends and relatives all have their own mishegas (a Yddsh word for craziness). That's why there are places like this. Not everyone is here all the time. But there's always SOMEONE if you need to talk, vent, whatever. Take care. We'll talk again.
I am right here for you. What is the best way for us to chat?
Hi
I just saw your post. I understand. I have no one who listens and friends are always too busy for me, but it seems like I am never too busy for them. So if you would like to chat, I am all ears. I don’t judge, I won’t tell you what to do, and I won’t give you any advice unless you ask.
