I feel my anxiety choking me
Hello all. I'm about to be 25 this week and as of yesterday i felt my anxiety just boil over in my life and I'm not sure what to do anymore.
I'm currently in a situation where I can't talk to my family about it because they feel I'm just immature. I feel like I have a condition where I can summarize my feelings in writing but not with my actual voice. Over my life so far, I've always been bullied and mocked for having an unusually high pitched voice for my age. I feel like people will never take me seriously because of the tone in my voice. I don't want to change my voice but I always felt if my voice was deeper people would actually listen to me.
The main reason I'm writing today is because I'm trying to balance my home life with my SO. This year will be 6 years. My family says they like him yet they don't want him doing anything at my family's house. He used to have his own house, but then he gave it up to live with me. It's been nearly a year, we help pay bills, clean and take care of my mentally disabled sister yet when i do something small like give him a piece of my closet to put this clothes in my family goes crazy yet won't say it to my face. It's to a point now we can't do much of anything at my house, and the anxiety of being abandoned by my family is taking hold of me (MY influence. Not my SO). My SO wants to move out yet I can't because of my sister and I'm not sure how she'll take it. But the house is basically empty since my mom passed away when I was 19. Any advice?
@SilverRhapsody I'm sorry that you were dealing with this and no one responded to your thread. It sounds like you had a lot on your plate and that isn't something that should have been dealt with alone. I hope that you have been feeling better since you posted this thread. I hope your anxiety isn't as overwhelming, you have gained more self confidence and stopped worrying about the sound of your voice, and you have found a resolution to this conflict between your family and your partner.
I'm sorry that I wasn't here almost a year ago when you posted this. But I am here now if you want to talk and work through any of these issues. Hopefully these aren't problems that are sill plaguing you but if they are, I'm sure we can figure out a solution if we work on them together.
