My anxiety was started nine years when I used my partner son as a lawyer in a real estate case we had against Wells Fargo. The father said we lost the case and I lost a lot of my retirement money, but i am still doing fine. so why do i have anxiety every day for nine years, I use my family doctor because i went to a Psychiatrist and he only give medication. I went to a Psychologist and he did not know about the medication. i need help. please help,

R u still with your partner? Do u think your lawyer was taking advantage of u ? If u suddenly developed anxiety after this particular situation - it could possibly have been triggered by a similar emotional experience from childhood - such as when u trusted a close relative and then they took advantage of u in some small or big way. I remember when I was little and my cousin stole my favorite coloring book and - scribbled on as many pages as he could - when I ran to my grandmother who was watching us — she told me to stop being a baby — I don’t have a relationship with that grandmother to this day - she favored my cousin cuz he was the only boy - and she clearly demonstrated that no amount of hurt and pain he caused - was she ever going to do the right thing - I never ever trusted her - and it was devastating as a little kid to realize that someone who was suppose to love me and take care of me couldn’t be trusted. There were many other little things she did and didn’t do that also made me not trust her.

I don’t know if u can think of anyone u may have trusted in your past and then betrayed you or maybe just didn’t follow thru on something they said they were going to do and this upset u - but if there is - it may help u find the reason for your anxiety

Hello, I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had anxiety for this long. I can relate to having anxious feelings about a past hurt. All can be going well, but when I have a flashback of the incident, I feel uneasy. I've learned to enjoy life and not worry about things that I can't change. I hope that you feel better soon!
