Anxiety doesnt choose a person anxiety builds up when we overthink and the anxiety is there to help you realise we have overworked our brain. i have bad anxiety and attacks but i jave started staying in the situation i am in when the anxiety starts the best thing you can do is nothing. dont think oh no or any other things that come into your mind. Start a conversation notice things around and u will realise the anxiety has reduced just dont

focus on your symptoms. i was staying in the house everyday and getting my husband to amuse the kids or would have to run out of a shop when panic startes but last weekend i went to london. I just thoight i dont care anymore and it was the hardest thing i did but there was points when i didnt even think about in fact in some points i didnt even think anything and it was fantastic. i still have anxiety everyday but it is not as intense and it is not all day anymore. just try the best you can to try small steps. you will do fantastic! the defearing thoughts are what keeps it going
