Deciding to get help

I can literally feel my anxiety hovering around over me. It’s just there waiting to ruin something else that’s going on in my life. I’m in bed hoping that it goes away. I’m a little hesitant to see a doctor about it... or to speak to the doctor that I work for. However, I feel that it may be time to get this taken care of medically. I just never wanted it to get to this point. Did anyone else struggle making this decision?

I struggle because my family was already calling me crazy because I use to have panic attacks in my teens so Am was scared of being judged

That’s awful! I’m so sorry your family said that to you.

Yes! I actually have my first doctors appointment for it tomorrow. I’m very nervous. It was so hard for me to take the step but I know I need to do it. I’ve been struggling with very intense anxiety the past three months now and obviously it just isn’t going to go away for me 😕

Hang in there and know that you’re not alone 🖤

I have the same issue with my family. They’re very judgey so I’m afraid of what they’ll think. Plus I wonder if it’ll ruin relationships and stuff. Like, will it make me look less stable or sane?

Not what you're looking for?
