Anxiety can affect all of us; some experiencing it in more extreme forms than others. I could start this post by telling you about all of the mental health statistics and then move onto vague advice from “professionals” who haven’t experienced extreme anxieties themselves, but I’d rather be real with you.
I’ve struggled as a secret anxiety fighter for many years, in fact ever since I was 10 years old. Talk about being trained and vetted as a secret agent at a young age!
If you’re newer here and aren’t familiar with my personal history with anxiety and agoraphobia, I’ll take a minute to fill you in before I talk about how I’ve been able to overcome many hurdles.
Living life as an anxiety fighter, I’ve often felt like a secret agent with a secret mission that no one knows about!
One year ago, I thought my world was falling apart. I spent nearly a week in tears, an entire day in bed, and thought some of the worst thoughts I could ever think.
I was 8 years old and I hated school. I didn’t hate it per se, I just hated how it made me feel.
It’s been a little over a month since I started treating my anxiety, so I wanted to give a little update about how I’ve been doing.
Hellooo my lovely forest friends! Happy October! I am feeling pretty good lately, and that is because I finally got enough courage to visit the doctor and get some help for this anxiety of mine.
Those of you who have been around for a while know about my struggles with anxiety and how I’ve been battling it for a long time now.
The other day I mentioned that one of my goals for this year was to reject negativity from my life. This is something I’ve come to realize needs to be done, and is something that I’m going to focus on greatly.
