My Story/ How I am Feeling:
Hello. I have been suffering from anxiety for practically my whole life. It has just gradually gotten worse. Some days are better than others obviously, but the anxiety never goes away. I know that it probably won't go away, but for now, I am just taking one step at a time. I recently went on medication, which I feel is doing nothing. I have all these overwhelming thoughts like "What if it is a placebo?' or "What if this doesn't work for me?" I never get a break from the anxiety. I have, however, found a few ways that help me cope with anxiety. I read, I write for a blog, I write books, and I meditate. You could probably imagine how I or any anxiety sufferer is feeling right now, especially with the coronavirus going around. We are terrified! Overall, I am doing good, when I don't let the anxiety in. I joined 7 Cups of Tea because I needed to be apart of a community that understands what it's like to have anxiety. I am so glad everyone here understands and accepts me. I have had a great experience here so far, and couldn't be more grateful. If you would like to send me a message to share your story with me, or if you just want to get to know each other, shoot me a chat! Thank you all who stopped to read my blurb!! I love you all!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Proud of you.
People will always find you helpful.

Thanks for sharing! I'm sure you'll be fine :)
I've struggled with anxiety my whole life, always being timid and scares about the future. My parents argue often, so I become triggered whenever i hear loud noises. Fortunatel, i can control my anxiety now after seeking treatment. 7cups also is very helpful!
I find that's sometimes I worry about worrying and if I take a deep breath remind myself that right now I am only perpetuating my worry unnecessarily.
