Anxiety what it all boils down to

Anxiety is something that we all have in one form or another.

when anxiety gets out of control and you feel that you cannot control the anxiety its time to reach out for help.

while anxiety in itself is non threatening i.e. you will probably not harm yourself or others due to anxiety, there are alot of times when you feel that it is full blown and you cannot over come your anxiety and you self isolate , stop taking care of yourself and it can manifest into depression

One of the problems with anxiety is that it is overlooked to much by professionals and they see it as an easy fix with anti depressants , mood stabalizers .

While they do help , anti depressants do help with coping with anxiety , it is only the surface that is being covered and not the reasons for the underlying problem .

All the time we hear about doing exercise keeping busy , which in itself helps take your mind off the anxiety is still not the treatment for the cause rather a coping mechanism that helps.

understanding where your anxieties are coming from and talking , exploring them is one of the best methods in truly coping with this . When we know what we feel and why we feel it we can attack the issue head on and find ways to approach the subject.

one of the weird ways that psychiatry deals with emotions is that it tends to think that it is all a chemical imbalancement rather than also an emotional one that is not something seen in MRI scans , its a deeper emotional issue that needs to be addressed and fixed.

you are not alone in this feeling , one of the worst feelings with anxiety is that it will never go away and that no one can understand how you feel . anxiety is the leading recognized mental health issue yet it is very hard to define it .

Along with a good psychiatrist you need to also find a good psychotherapist while it is expensive it is worth it for your overall general health .

there are many new forms of anxiety /depression advances that are becoming main stream , such as elm/mf exposure , ect , and psychadelics . it is worth checking these out if traditional medicines are not giving you that strong enough push forward.

One of the main obstacles when starting is the timeframe for which you have to wait , in order to pass these first weeks until you see someone , or the pills start to work you should always talk about it with family , friends , hotlines and our wonderful listeners online here that want to hear from you.

You are not alone in your struggles we are all in this together , and I hope that we all find a path of inner balance
