Anxiety
 

Hey. so i havent seen alot of this on here but i was wondering if there was anyone else who has an anxiety disorder on here?

Yup, I think you will find there are quite a few people with anxiety problems here. I have an ED, BPD, self injury and Generalised Anxiety disorder-- I'm on 4 medications to help with it, and they do help... to a point. I don't really go out :( as prefer the safety of my flat.

Have you been to your doctor? *hugs* cos I know how crap it feels x

Sorry am so tired have just noticed you've got a diagnosis-- what sort of things have you been told to help with it? More hugs xx

I have AD!

I dont have GAD or anything, though i have had problems with anxiety for 14 years. My old cpn said i had severe anxiety though.

I have anxiety mixed with other things. I find a lot of people on RYL have some level of anxiety, or experience of it.

Was there something specific about your anxiety that you wanted to discuss?

Yuss social anxiety disorder :) hii

I also have Social Anxiety Disorder :)
There are lots here, you're never alone!

I have generalized anxiety disorder and panic disorder. It is odd that it's not really mentioned a lot on here. I hardly ever see anyone with panic disorder =/

I have anxiety coming out of my ears! GAD I guess :) Never said it out loud (or text before)

Hello *Waves*

I also have GAD.

OCD here. and general and social anxiety though those are less significant for me

I haven't been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder but struggle with those type of feelings and panic attacks. I know that you're looking for support (or maybe to feel less alone?) from people who do have anxiety disorders but sometimes it can help to write what you struggle with about it and see where people can help you there.

What was it that you wanted help with?

Even if it isn't talked about, you're not alone here.

I struggle with anxiety everyday! It's only heightened since I got off of Lexapro. And it comes in waves that seem unstoppable. I also struggle with depersonalization, it's the worst, where you feel completely disconnected from everyone and everything, like someone else is living your life and you are a spectator. I also experience plenty of social anxiety, I often want to leave when I first get to social gatherings because I am overwhelmed with all the thoughts in my head and worry that somehow I don't belong. Yada yada yada, the list goes on lol.

I suffer from anxiety, and have recently started having panic attacks again.

Yeah, I have severe social anxiety and selective mutism as a result. I hate it, it's ruined my life. :(

I have GAD, and have been suffering from anxiety since i was 17 (now 21)

It's a terrible thing to have :( i recently came off lexapro as i was depressed and my anxiety has seriously doubled since i came off that!

I have GAD. I have since I was around 14, I'm now 21.
I'm a very nervous person, always worrying and scared.
My anxiety is really bad in social situations.
I very rarely go out.
I have many panic attacks too.
I'm here if you want to talk.
