Anxiety and Despair

I hate that my anxiety is trying to make it seem like I’m going through life and all of this alone, but I’m not. I also hate that it makes everything seem like a life or death scenario, when really it’s something trivial. Any tips on how to quiet the anxiety?

-Cut down on caffeine..

-practice doing things that your anxiety prevents (as if it was a muscle)

-start to trust yourself again.(remind yourself that you are capable enough to beat anxiety.)🌟

Thank you for your response! What do you mean by practicing what my anxiety prevents?

Usually anxiety paralyzes alot of people when their trying to do things that trigger anxiety,  like driving, mowing, or talking in a group setting.🌟

@GalaxyDreamer28 I’m really sorry you’re going through all of this. Anxiety can be really deceptive—it makes you feel alone and turns everything into something huge and scary, even when it isn’t. It must be really heavy to carry every day. Even if it doesn’t feel like it in those moments, you’re not alone.
