How to overcome anxiety

I never knew I had anxiety until I took a test. I am starting to realize that it is what has been affecting my marriage and relationship with my husband and family and friends. Does it ever get better? What can I do to change these moods?

I can relate to your experience. I didn't realize I had anxiety until I was in my early 20s. I was always the "stressed out" friend, but I thought it was just part of my personality. It wasn't until I started having panic attacks that I realized something was wrong.

I recommend speaking with your doctor. They can diagnose your anxiety and recommend treatment options. Also, make sure to eat a healthy diet and regularly exercise if you aren't doing so already. Exercising helped me release my stress and manage my anxiety.

Can anxiety be triggered by insecurities?
