How to make friends when suffer from anxiety and depression
hi, i have suffered from anxiety and depression for a while now. i find it very difficult to make new friends due to my anxiety disorder and low self esteem, are there any tips?
Darling, I suffer from anxiety too. I know the pain and loneliness that you must feel. Don't give up on yourself. I have found pushing yourself to do things that make you feel uncomfortable is the best way to end the anxiety. I know that sounds impossible but it works. Anxiety feeds from anxiety. It is your brain telling you lies. You are a strong person and you can fight this. Find a trusted person to talk to. Counselor at school? Parent? It helps to express your feelings and fears. You are NOT alone. You would be surprised how many people suffer from this and are hiding. What helps me is a technique called EFT. It's a tapping process. Look it up on YouTube for a demonstration. It may look silly, but it works! Sending you hugs! You will get strong....this will get better! (((((Hugs)))))
