Hi. I’m new here. I suffer with anxiety. Over the years I’ve been through various therapies and medication but nothing seems to help. It would be great to speak to anybody who can relate.

Anxiety
Hi, I too suffer with anxiety. I’ve had it intensely for the last year. I’m having a bit of a bad day today. I’ve tried deep breathing and meditation, but they haven’t helped me much.
Anxiety meds work, but I’ve been taking them much too long. It’s time for me to do this on my own. I feel talking about it with others who are dealing with it as well helps.
Where are you from? And how long have you been suffering?
Hi Lostjoy. Thanks for your reply. I’m from the uk. I’ve struggled with anxiety since I was a child. If anything it’s gotten worse as I’ve gotten older. I too find talking with others who understand helps.
I hope you’re feeling a little better than yesterday. I too meditate. When I can find the concentration!

I have a similar situation. I've had since I was young. I was okay for about 20 years and it came back with a vengeance 5 years. I have a phobia of the anxiety. I'm afraid of it. I'm these last two months have been terrible. Meds don't he did take them down some. No support at home. Husbands mad because I'm on meds. I don't what to do? Now I'm getting depressed
Hello,
I think you have come to a good place, theres some really lovely people on here with great advice.
I am in a similar boat and have anxiety and depression for a very long time.
I personally havent found medication or therapy has worked for me, its mostly been my own perseverance to fight it. But i will keep going back and trying both because maybe i just need to do them at the right time.
I know many people meds and therapy has done wonders for but i always feel more frustrated and lost after a session.
I think its actually good to acknowledge when something isnt working.
Anyways you are not alone and welcome to the forum.
Hi there,
Great posts from the other repliers. Hang in there, you are not alone. Things are always changing, moment to moment. My the therapist used to say to me, each moment is an end and a new beginning, and he was right, great bloke! I'm much better but still get support here and like to support when I can.
Let go of frustration and trying to force anything. Just keep focussed, be gentle with yourself and know each moment contribute to making a change.
Peace!
hi and welcome lets hope you get lots of support/help on here I'm sure you will.
