Thanks for accepting me, I have been dealing with anxiety since my high school years, I'm now 24 and it has its ups and its downs, but you just have to plod on through it in my opinion, anyone who needs a chat I'm here, very good listener and I don't judge <3

It's not really a feeling tbh, I sometimes get emotion asthma attacks and I feel sort like sick or butterfly in stomach but worse and I push people away and find it hell of a difficult to connect or show affection to people, I guess I'm pretty paranoid too, how about you? xx

Hey, I'm new too. I recently noticed I've had anxiety for quite some time, but didn't know I had it. Is there any good tips on how to deal with anxiety?

I would say to try a grounding exercise when your anxiety gets too much for you, or carry a little memento with you and hold it when your anxiety gets too much, I also found exercise helps sometimes but other that that I'm afraid we just have to plot on through and get on with it :)

Life can be a bit overwhelming. Most of my anxiety comes from within a classroom. School is the scariest place in the world to me. I have no idea why. It's so hard to be so comfortable.

I agree with you, I was lucky enough when I was at school that there was a program in place for people with anxiety where you could complete your subject exams etc, but now I am a wee bit older it doesn't get any easier I'm afraid, I sometimes even get too afraid to go shopping or even out with the dog but it comes to a point where I have to do it and get on with it even though I feel like I'm dying inside :(

Wow its nice that I can relate to someone! I mean I'm sorry you have to go through that, it's just all of this time I really felt alone. It's strange how I try to keep my cool in class, but everyone else seems like they're just fine. Sometimes that makes my anxiety worse when it seems like everyone else is alright, and I'm the only one freaking out inside. Thanks for sharing though, it means a lot :)

We are definitely not alone, even though it feels like it a lot of the time, sometimes its a pure chore getting through the day and others are flawless

I totally agree, but at a certain point you have to ask yourself how you want t live our lives and take control of our emotions, I struggle and will continue to struggle with this on a daily basis
