Bad anxiety need help

[tiffanymoore549]

I used to have really bad depression but went through therapy but now I have anxiety and it bothers me I can't say anything to anyone with out being afraid that would be the last thing they hear from me or whatever..what do I do?

Maybe addressing this in therapy would be a good idea. Have you or are you currently in any kind of danger that could be causing your anxiety?

I don't really know.depression is pretty bad and probably considered more serious medically but anxiety sounds pretty awful as well.

It probably does n't help much but try and relax. You probably have no good reason to be anxious but stopping it is easier said than done. If you're a reader i've noticed that libraries are full of self help books for anxiety and I believe that most of the therapies for anxiety ,mindfulness, relaxation,breathing exercises have a good record for people suffering anxiety.

I'm sure some of the books are rubbish but if you read a few you might find something that helps and if there are courses on any of them local to you that would help even more. Also the fact that you are doing something to help yourself should give a big lift as humans do not react well to feeling helpless ,and reading about ways to cope will give you the feeling you're doing something to help yourself which will give you a lift in itself.
