I don’t know.
I am tired, absolutely tired. Anxiety is exhausting me from head to toe and I can’t do anything about it right now. On Friday, I have a nail appointment…Anxiety. Saturday, hairdresser…Even more anxiety. Sunday night? I’ll get in the car with my family and go on vacation…I’m gonna go crazy from anxiety.
I’m tired. I can’t do anything simple because everything blocks me—I already know what will happen: anxiety before, even more anxiety at that moment and then even after!
I don’t have a therapist, yet, feels useless to just go to one right when I have to go on vacation, probably they don’t even have any spots left. I’ll just have to endure it—and that’s what’s harder.
A fifteen year old shouldn’t be going through this. I have to live my life, yet I can’t. I can’t even go out to eat with my family at a restaurant that I feel like I might vomit.
Nothing works. Breathing exercises don’t work. Butterfly hugs neither. I lost hope now, I’ll probably spend my whole life locked up in my own house because I can’t do simple things.
I don’t want to be prescribed medication. I’m scared. Everytime, it feels like the world is ending for me. And I wish I could do something about it, but I can’t. No one I try and talk to can help with this, they just tell me to “calm down”, but how? It’s impossible to calm down for me. I have the worst anxiety ever.

I understand it's never helpful to be told to stay calm, if it were that easy, sure, you'd do it.
Have you spoken to your parents about how you feel?
I understand you don't wish to take medication but it's important to find coping strategies that don't hold you back or keep you from living your life. It can and does get better. It helps me to tell myself and train my mind to know, I am safe, it can't hurt me, I am good, i have gotten through this and listening to music to drown out the overthinking. Genuinely, sending you my best wishes 💜💕
Hi, thank you for the kind words🩷
I spoke to my mum about this, but i guess she’s not going as far as getting me a therapist, maybe in the future she will?
But I guess it’s not time yet. I hope I’ll find something to help me deal with it. Everyday it feels like the world is about to end once I start having an anxiety or a panic attack…
This is literally my everyday routine u not alone I wake up with anxiety go through my day with anxiety sleep with anxiety and am exhausted tired to idk what to do there’s lil moments min it goes away but somehow returns nun seems to help anxiety is literally ruining my life the worst thing is nauseous am nauseous 24/7
Oh gosh…We are the same! I’m constantly nauseous once I have anxiety, most of all I get a lump in my throat that I can’t seem to remove.
It will get better, I promise.
I hope we both can find something that will help us deal with it…
