Dealing With Anxiety

I’m new to this group but just wanted to say that I have dealt with anxiety for about 8 years now. Felt cured for the last 2 years or so through medication and therapy.

A recent life changing decision occurred where I had to move back to Montana from Denver, find new work, and figure out my living situation. Had to do a 13 hour drive while having anxiety the entire time (probably one of the hardest things I’ve ever done).

I’ve now had residual anxiety for 3 days in a row now and feel there is no hope. It’s even more frustrating because I’ve gotten through this before, and even though I have.. I can’t convince myself to not have these scary thoughts, worry, it’ll never pass, I’m alone, random suicide thoughts (even though I would never in a million years go through with it, still scares me that their there).

If anybody out there wants to talk, or express their anxiety issues in anyway. I’m here and would like to see how maybe somebody got through their own issues. Thank you to anybody who read this.

Hi, I've had two episodes of depression in my life accompanied by extremely severe anxiety. The second episode of this lasted for about a year before a medication was found that could help me. Anxiety for me was crippling, so far so that I had to quit my job and go on disability for a while. It's the worst feeling in the world. So I can relate to what you're going through. Please feel free to write me at any time. I have been going through some issues lately that have caused anxiety as well. Oh, also, I was raised in Englewood, a suburb of Denver. However I've been living in Florida since I was 21 and I'm 46 now. I still cheer for the Denver Broncos.
