I'm starting to feel defeated
I have friends I mean not many more like 2, but that's OK the only problem is I don't have any friends that understand what I'm going through. I've struggled with anxiety for 3 years now and depression about a year. I see a therapist which is mostly helpful, but it's not the same as having a friend you can talk to on a more personal level. I truly feel that I won't feel like this forever but it's hard to process on your own.
Hey @PeachLynn
You're absolutely right - support can be very different than someone who has experienced what you're going through. Sometimes when talking to someone who hasn't been there, it's just not the same. Sometimes we need someone who has been there themselves, so we don't feel like we're the only person dealing with this.
I'm glad that you're getting support through therapy and I'm glad that therapy seems to be going well. One thing to try on top of everything is joining a support group (or perhaps group therapy if your finances allow) of others who are also dealing with anxiety. It's not going to be the easiest thing in the world but it might be worth a shot.
Sending you lots of love and support <3
