Is anxiety common? Am I alone in this?

Personally I think anxiety is much more commonly experienced than a lot of people realize. That said, you are absolutely not alone in this. As with many things people experience, I think there is also a very side spectrum of anxiety, from mild to severe. And this spectrum, in my opinion, can be experienced by the same person in several ways during their life. If you would like support in this, please know that there are many options available to you, as well.

Anxiety surely isn't a rarity. It's actually on the rise, which is sad, that being said...You aren't alone, there are lots of people, including myself whom also deal with anxiety, there's a Anxiety Support Chatroom on this website, that you're welcome to join!

I found that anxiety (to different extents) is more common than people believe it is. When I was first diagnosed after experiencing anxiety attacks and a difference in behavior after a traumatic experience, I thought I was the only person I knew who had anxiety. Later on, though, as I started feeling more confident about being "out" about having anxiety, I discovered a lot of people have anxiety and manage to hide it as well as I do.

you are not alone plenty of people go through this at one point in their lives and it could be because something specific happened and when you see something ect. it might trigger you or other people

No, you are never alone. Many people, roughly 1 out of 3, deal with some kind of anxiety. So, anxiety is pretty common

Anxiety is common, and perhaps becoming more-so. In a high-energy, high-production society like ours, social anxiety and work-related stress are definitely on the rise. Chances are if you don't know anybody else directly who suffers from anxiety, at least a few people you know do. Not only are you definitely not alone, but anxiety as both a physical and mental health issue is much less "taboo" than it once was, and there are plenty of professionals available in many fields who can help you find ways to cope. Good places to start, if you're looking for somebody professional to talk to, are just asking your friends or family if they know of a good therapist, or - especially if your family, like mine, is a little skeptical still - just talk to your doctor. Chances are they can suggest somebody, or at least point you to some great resources or organizations.

Anxiety is a very common thing, you are not alone! You can always talk to someone on 7 Cups of Tea :)

Anxiety disorders is the most common psychiatric disorder on the planet. You can never be alone even with an anxiety disorder because you are still a human being with feelings, the problem is that sometimes our brains makes some errors and we need to fix them in order to function correctly.
