Tired of being defined by my anxiety

Nights like tonight are when I become frustrated with my anxiety. I’m tired of my thoughts testing me to see if I’m still “afraid” of things I know I’m afraid of happening in the future. I’m tired of letting my anxiety get the better of me. I’m trying to accept my anxiety for what it is and know that these “fears” are just thoughts and not actual danger. Some days are easier than others and some days I want to scream from how uncomfortable I feel because of it.

With saying that one thing I know is that my fears and anxieties may try to keep me down but they will never defeat me. I will never stop fighting and I know it can get better even when it feels hopeless at times.

I know exactly how you feel as I also aim tired to fight everyday with how I feel all the negative thoughts and all the wtfs I too have to deal with this every single day and can't enjoy anything without always being with fear I hate it!!!!!

It's like you're not alive, just being tortured in some kind of hell. I totally understand it, my medication used to control my anxiety but now it doesn't anymore , so I feel like I have to do it's job that is preventing me from going crazy with my own mind, it takes a lot of energy and I'm always counting the hours to take the medication to sleep , feels like a loop.
