Hello, I am Dee. I have suffered from depression since I was young but I developed really bad anxiety when I was 19, started having regular panic attacks when I was 22. I am 25 now and just want to get them under control and reclaim my life because I constantly feel stressed. I'm hoping to find supportive people here because no one in my life really gets me :/
Hi. I'm Sarah. I've recently developed bad anxiety within the past few months. I have an anxiety attack at least once a week. I feel like nobody cares about me other than my parents - my friends have left me and my boyfriend who I thought was the one dumped me because he couldn't deal with me. I just want people to understand and see that this doesn't make me a bad person - I just don't know how to control it properly.
Hi, I'm a 14 year old high school student. I haven't been diagnosed with anything but I'm pretty sure that I have social anxiety and depression. I have regular panic attacks that have been getting worse and more frequent. I find it really hard to talk to people (even online). I can't pay for things in shops or order at restaurants and I'm always nervous around people (includingmy friends). Most of my friends don't really understand and I'm too scared to talk to people about it. I often have panic attacks in class and I find it so embarrassingwhich just makes everything worse. Anyway, I have some language speaking exams coming up so I was wondering if nyone had any tips about that or about how to stop panic attacks.

Hi! My name is Linda. I'm 53 years old with 4 grown children. I started to get anxiety after going through a reallyscary domestic violence situation years ago. Ever since then, I don't sleep well and my heart sometimes races in the middle of the night, and I'm not usually dreaming when it happens. I have been taking a prescription for several years now, and recently was prescribed an emergency anxiety medication to use only when an attack hits.
I'm a 37 year old man, married with three (two) children, one is my wife's from a previous relationship.
My anxiety started showing itself around October 2014, but got worse around Christmas. I've been seeing a psychologist, and she says the anxiety has roots in buried feelings, and I kind of knew this was true before she told me. My problem is acknowledging and processing negative feelings like anger. I say yes to things when I really wanted to say no. As another therapist told me, I'm too nice for my own good.
