How?

[tppppppp]

How can someone like me with everything I could ever want be feeling this pain? How is that possible? I wish it made sense. Then I could start to understand it. My therapist says I'm in the fight of my life. I agree with that. I've got a long way to go. And many more good and bad days ahead. I believe I have to stay alive to see this through.

Having everything you could ever want does not make you immune to anxiety disorder and the depression that sometimes comes out of anxiety.

Anxiety disorder is caused when your nervous system becomes over sensitised due to too much worry, stress, overwork, loss, disappointment, guilt or grief.

I have no medical qualifications but would disagree with your therapist who has told you that you are in a fight of your life: fighting only causes more tension and stress. Fighting anxiety only makes things worse by ensuring the continued sensitisation of your nervous system. We win when we learn to accept our anxiety and all its symptoms for the time being. Do not add second fear to the flash of first fear. 'Learn to live with your anxiety and you'll be able to live without it!

You need an exit plan, you will not get too far without one.
