Lonely which makes me anxious

@livbinny

Hello,

How are you doing today? Anxiety is very hard to deal with until you figure out ways to stay grounded and calm and gain confidence. These things will all come!! No worries!! Just know that the anxiety is a manifestation of old trauma, and you will learn about yourself and then be better able to control things like anxiety and depression. I have gained a lot of coping tools and I needed them badly. Some of the most basic lessons in life that should be taught in elementary school, but I didn't comprehend the correct outlook or perception because past traumas clouded my vision, and you will learn what things trigger you and begin to address them head on!! I had to learn to get out of my own way and put my life in somebody else's hands for a while and listen to them fully, plus I got two therapists, and agreed to take many medications. I feel a lot more in control of my life but it's a steady goal that I aim for to avoid anxiety. I try not to even say the word "anxiety" because it used to be a trigger in a way. When fears creep in, it can be hard to use logic to calm yourself because a feeling like that of fear comes with a convincing set of symptoms such as goose bumps, labored breathing, racing thoughts, and manic behavior. I am so grateful for all the help folks on 7 cups gave me!!   Did you know that if you want to connect with any other member on 7cups,

All you have to do is write to that person, and then tag them like I did above where you see your 7cups ID ( @livbinny ), at the top of this message. I added it to the left and also to the bottom because I wanted you to know you can add it anywhere on the page. I'm also a sufferer with anxiety and depression and PTSD, but the times I've spent over the years on 7cups has introduced me to many caring and helpful people. You took the biggest step already!! You reached out for guidance and friendship, and many of us here are more than happy to share the good news which is: "We do get better"

Tag me anytime!

Blessings, Day
