Hi, I was hoping to find others who may be experiencing what I am. My adult son has pretty bad anxiety and right now it's pretty extreme. I'm trying to get help for him, but until he has appointments I just feel helpless. He only shares his concerns with me, and I don't know what to say to him. I want to help him, but I don't know how. And as his mom, I'm worried. I feel overwhelmed and alone.

All you can do is reassure him and let him know that you are there for him. When he gets his appointment with the doctor you should also make one for yourself to get help and advice on how to best help your son.
Anxiety is very hard to get to the route of for myself due to lack of people I feel comfortable to talk with I spend most of my time in my head playing out endless scenarios which gives me anxiety pretty much all day long I’ve have never really spoken about it with anyone but I’m starting to come to terms with it now that I am on here sharing. When it comes to your son I recommend keeping him talking and out of his own head space the more he gets it off his chest the smaller it will feel and who knows perhaps together you will find some solutions to help him
