Have you ever felt....

Like you just need an acknowledgement, a nod, a smile or even a hug from someone who gets it? When they don't, even though they mean well - it's just not the same.

All. The. Time. I’m still unhappy because I tried to talk about this with my best friend IRL, and she doesn’t get it at all. Luckily, I have more than one friend and at least one who *does* get it.

for majority, if not the entirety, of each day, i’m surrounded by individuals i think don’t truly understand me or my condition and who i also don’t get this natural sense of comfort from being around which sucks because these are my family members and potential friends i’m talking about.

Scf it’s hard if those around you have had no exposure to anxiety and it’s symptoms . This is why we need this blog. We have each other!
