Anxiety is the worst feeling ever 😔
I feel the need of validation to ease my anxiety but most of the time I can't have that validation.. Anxiety is very bad, it cause frequent worries and doubts resulting in fear .. sometimes I wish I could just accept it and tell myself to not care about things I can&t control :[ . How do youu guys deal with this feeling?
I understand what you mean. Feeling anxious and needing validation is really hard. Sometimes it’s not possible to get that from others, but you can try giving yourself small support like reminding yourself that it’s okay to feel this way, and you’re doing your best. Focusing on what you can control, even tiny things, can help a bit. You’re not alone in feeling like this

I really appreciate you sharing how you feel. It's completely normal to seek validation, especially when anxiety makes everything feel overwhelming. Remember 7 cup listeners are here to support you! Have you tried any coping strategies to deal with these feelings?
@hopefulencounter Hey, thank you so much for sharing! I really feel you on this. That urge for validation can be sooo strong, and when it’s not there, it just makes the anxiety spiral even more. It’s like your brain knows you should let things go, but your body just won’t listen, right? I’ve been there, and it’s such a hard feeling to sit with.
You're not alone in feeling this way.
I'm curious: when those moments hit, is there anything that helps even a little? Like grounding yourself or talking it out?
Just talking about it here is already a brave step!
@hopefulencounter Anxiety's really hard to manage, I'm sorry you're going through something like this. It's a challenging situation to encounter and I'm sure you're doing your best to cope with it. What are some strategies that you've tried to help you with it?
I understand, it can get frustrating to doubt yourself and need validation for everything. Just know that the only one you can blindly trust is yourself. The only person you know inside-out is yourself. Try doing something and trust yourself blindly that you did it perfectly; it can be anything, baking, crafting......etc. Then slowly do more and more stuff without seeking validation. This builds a slow momentum over time....take care of yourself <//3
@MEisJaqJaq hi thank you for hearing my story and giving me advice I'm very grateful to hear from you. 🤗🧡 Lately I've been trying to be kinder with myself and ignore some people that caused my needing of validation, I feel a lot better now.. I try not to care and worry so much about them, about what they think of me. I realized I have to prioritize my own peace
