I’ve had anxiety my whole life, but it’s been extreme for 8 years. Wondering how long others have suffered. Looking for some hope.

I basically had it on and off my whole life. My mom is a big time worrier I'm thinking that it's rubbed off on me. I'm much better now don't let it interfere with my life accept it and live my life.

I've battled depression since I was 21...I'm now 64. About three years ago, anxiety began to creep in and that has been more of a battle than the depression. You will find support within this website.

Hello I’m in the over 20 years of suffering club👋👋

I’m 38 and have been searching since I was about 15 I would say. Have multiple suicides in family tree.

I’ve found that I have to deflate my anxiety daily with something like a workout, playing drums..singing loudly....I treat my anxiety like it’s bad energy....and I treat it in two ways....

I rest it away for a day or two like a slug.

Or I crank up something active like the hobbies I mentioned above and force my system into calming down through physical exhaustion and endorphins.

Yet all this time I still have those days that are simply dreadful every few weeks.

Hang tough but don’t wait tooooo long right friend get moving dig deep 🙏🙌
