Burnt out, anxious, and unappreciated
Anxiety Support / by lightKite4339

...See more I’m feeling burnt out, anxious, and down. I feel like I’m constantly taking care of others and have no time for myself. I work as a caregiver on the weekends, and when I’m not doing that I’m caring for my grandfather during the week who has cancer. I feel like I’m constantly on the go… like a chicken with its head cut off. And when I get home I have a boyfriend who doesn’t really pay me much attention. I just want someone to talk to at the end of the day. My boyfriend and I have been together for 7 years. We have a son and live together. I’ve been waiting for him to propose, but he still hasn’t. And it really bothers me. He always makes an excuse as to why he hasn’t yet. I just feel really unappreciated and over everything lately. I’m sorry for complaining. I just feel like it’s all getting too me and I don’t know what to do. Thanks for listening

...See more I just wanted to say that this community is amazing! My anxiety was pretty bad this morning. I wrote about it this morning and got a few responses back. Not only that, but I was able to have a conversation with someone about the way I was feeling. I felt heard and like my feelings were validated. It can be hard when you feel like you have no one to listen or understand you. But today I felt heard for the first time in a while. I can’t afford therapy or counseling, but this was just as good. My anxiety has improved today because of the kind people on this app. I am so thankful to all of you. And I am glad that we can all be here for each other. Things do get better. Thank you for reminding me that I’m not alone in feeling this way. I hope I can lend a helping hand to some of you as well. ❤️
Anxiety and worried what others think of me

...See more Hi. I’m a 29 y/o female. I’ve always had a hard time with worrying about what others think about me. And lately my anxiety has gotten worse and I feel like every time I go around certain people, they are bashing me and making fun of me in a passive way. I recently decided to quit using mmj and I don’t drink alcohol as often. I decided to try and go down a healthier path, and ever since then, I’ve been feeling uncomfortable around the people that I used to do all that stuff with. I had to distance myself from them so I wouldn’t fee the need to dabble in all of those things. But I feel like it backfired and now I’m just uncomfortable every time I’m around them. I get extreme anxiety and can’t make eye contact or pay attention. Then when I leave the situation, I later go over it in my head a million times. I know I should t care about what they think, but they are my husbands family so it makes it hard to deal with when I have to see them on the regular. How do I not let it bother me? How do I stop caring?
Realizing that opinions don't define me

...See more So I have had ADD without hyperactivity my whole life. I have struggled with inattentiveness my whole life and have always had troubke coping with it. Lately I've been feeling judged by others for this disorder that i can not help. I let the opinions and poor treatment from others define me and who i was. But recently I have realized that their opinions don't matter. They don't know me enough to judge me. They all have their own problems that they deal with. And maybe they pass judgement as a way to cope with their own insecurities. I recently ran into an individual that made me feel bad about who I was and my small flaws. They suggested that I wasnt "sane" because of the way i can let my home become messy. Sometimes i don't realize how out messy my home can become because of my inattentive ADD. But i also have other qualities that are good. And I can only move forward and try to keep my home tidy and better myself. BUT I will not let someone elses insults make me feel less of a human, stupid, insane or like I'm a bad person. I've been through some very tough things and I have gotten through it all. As long as i keep moving forward I can only make myself and my life better! To all the individuals that feel like they aren't good enough, smart enough, tidy enough, or whatever your insecurity may be...just know that you are deserving of happiness and you can accomplish your goals and get past whatever it is that you have trouble with today. Peace &love
