It becomes necessary to seek professional help when you start thinking that feelings of anxiety are normal. When you start thinking that being afraid to make eye contact with people and being too scared to wear that cute shirt you really like is your daily routine. Seek help when your hands start shaking and your vision gets blurry at the thought of waking up another day. Talk to someone when your sister announces her first pregnancy and all you can feel is nothing, your senses numb. You try to be happy for her, but you can't.
Get help when you are not happy anymore.
You are allowed to feel happy.
You are allowed to be human.
You do not have to live with anxiey.
