What if people know that I'm struggling with anxiety?

Probably you will find more people with the same problem. In fact, You are not alone dealing with anxiety.

Just shake it off, If someone knows your buissness, Ignore it. It's just like painting your nails and getting paint on the toe. You can still fix it.

Struggling with Anxiety is nothing to be ashamed of, and is more common than everyone thinks. The more people that know that your struggling the better support system you will have.

First of all, try to be calm. It's not a thing to be ashamed of. You shouldn't think of this as a shameful thing. It's a disorder, in which you have no fault. Just keep going through this, you should know that you are 2 times stronger than average people. You battle this everyday, you are strong!

I've struggled with anxiety for a long time myself, what i found out once i started to be more open about it, is that actually a lot of people understood what i was going trough. Some had their own experiences with anxiety, others had friends or relatives that struggled with anxiety, none judged me for struggling with it. I've since been very open about the fact that I've struggled with anxiety and found out that i was fine with people knowing what i was struggling with.

Having anxiety is nothing to be ashamed of - don't be afraid of other people finding out. Most people will be really supportive, in my experience.

I struggle from anxiety. I was afraid to tell people, but im glad I did. The people that love me and support me understood and were able to give me the time, space and support I needed if I was feeling anxious. No one should ever judge you for this, it's something we have no control over.

Sometimes, those of us who tend to "live out loud" with our issues inspire those around us to push harder though there own--- and they we are all connected in our humanness... not alone at all.

Some people will try to help you over come your anxiety while help you, others may mock you or leave you. It is clear you need to get rid of those who mock you and surround yourself with support.

Then nothing. Nothing bad is going to happen if people find out you're struggling with anxiety. Bad people could be mean about it, but this is rare. Most people don't care or are understanding.

It is nothing to be ashamed of and you will get through it in the end. Anxiety is a symbol that you have been strong for too long and you will get through this part of your life

Do not feel embarrassed about expressing your emotions, people will not judge you just because you have anxiety. We all experience anxiety at times. Don't worry about people knowing. You NEED people to know sometimes.

Be patient towards the people who don't know what it is. And be kind to the people who truly care about what's going on on your brain.

then if they choose to say something to you, it is their own ignorance that is guiding them. However, they may also choose to try and help offer you some support

I struggle with anxiety and I have actually found that talking with people about it makes me feel better. I have been surprised by the amount of people who are having similar struggles. The more I talk about it the more "normal" I feel and the less anxiety I have.

Does it matter? If you're worried about people judging you and can't keep it together, consider seeing a doctor/therapist for more assistance.

If people know, hopefully they would offer help/support to you! But on the other hand, some people may fear the stigma that is attached to anxiety, and may decide not to say anything.

It shouldn't bother anyone that a person has any mental illness, but society makes it out to be. If a person doesn't like that you have anxiety, remove them from your life. It's as simple as that. True friends wont care about those things. They'll want to help you.

If people realize you a struggling with anxiety there is little we can do to change their mind. All we can do is to concentrate on ourselves and how we conduct ourselves. Easer said then done yet it is doable!

They might have some trouble understanding, they might think that you're weird. They'd be wrong. Then they'd get to know you, you'd maybe tell them a little more about the fact that it's uncontrollable, the anxiety, and they'd begin to learn more about anxiety & anxiety disorders. But most importantly, you'd feel at ease for not having to hide your anxiety from people.
