Night anxiety

[margyy17]

It’s been a few nights since I came back from a month trip in Asia. Everything was good there, I had an amazing time, but since I came back I haven’t been feeling good, first I had a flue for a couple of days. Than my anxiety started to Kick in. I found out that my best friends mom has Brest cancer, I was devastated by that news, plus my grandfather is not feeling good either and I just don’t know what to do, I keep having these bad thoughts at night. I can’t talk to my family about this because every time I try to open up with them about these subjects they think I’m crazy and stupid and that because I’m only 20 I shouldn’t worry about this stuff, but I do.

It’s crazy but while I’m writing this post I feel so much better already because I’m letting out everything I have been keeping for my self the last couple of weeks.

Thank you

Hi Margy, I know what it’s like to get away, go on a nice trip then come back and get bogged down by so much. You feel like you never went on vacation and need one! I’m sorry for everything you’re facing right now and I’m glad you found this community! Hugs to you. P.S. Age is not a factor when it comes to pain and anxiety! ❤️

Its all ways better to talk about your feeling s instead of keeping it in.

This is exactly what my family thinks. It does feel a lot better talking and letting someone know what you’re feeling. Have you tried therapy? I just started and I feel a little better for the most part! Judgment-free zone. It sucks that our family can be so closed-minded about mental health but this community is always here to listen and not judge!
