Hi, I am new here. I am not sure what to do anymore and that is giving me even more anxiety. I don't want to feel this way and I feel like no one understands.

Thank you. I think my husband is getting frustrated with me. He gets it but not fully and I can tell his patients are wearing thin. I am worried he is going to leave me because of this :'(

I can relate to the friends-gone thing. My longtime childhood friends and I aren't close anymore, even though we only live 30 minutes away from each other. I think it's just a part of growing up. Some friends stick and others don't. And you also make new friends along the way. I hope you are making new friends? I'm here also, for the support.

I still do have a lot of friends..I also have a small child though and it's hard to stay connected period. A lot of times I find my self sitting alone and just thinking about EVERYTHING then I start to question things my husband does or says to me like he is mad or upset.

Hey,

I reached out on this website for the same reasons - anxiety. I constantly worry about everything for not real reason. However, people here will help you a lot. So don't feel shy about what you are thinking or feeling. This community has been a great support.

With that, what has been on your mind?

Thank you I just feel like I am letting people down all the time. I am always so worried that my husband is upset with me then that snow balls into me thinking we have problems. He always says we are fine but I just always feel like we aren't and that he wishes I was...better, smarter, prettier.. I don't know.

Welcome! I hope this is a place you can feel support. You are NOT alone in this, but anxiety, by nature, isolates us and makes us feel like nobody understands. Do you have a therapist? Have you tried medications? What coping mechanisms do you use? Meditation, exercise, breathing exercises, funny videos, etc?

I am actually going to see my doctor tomorrow to see what would be the best option for me...which is giving me more anxiety just thinking about it. I have felt like I have a problem for awhile now but my husband just finally talked me into going to see her. I'm scared she is going to tell me I am crazy.

I know, frustrating. It is hard for people to understand TRUST me I do know. Reach out for professional help if you need .
