New To The Anxiety Support Community? Introduce Yourself Here!

I heard about this disease that can kill you and I am very afraid that me or my family will get it. I had trouble sleeping yesterday, and I want to stop being scared.

Hello! I have severe anxiety, especially when i have to go to crowded or unfamilar places but i get anxiety for no reason also. I also experience panic attacks. I also have bad depression. Living with anxiety and depression, like many people do is horrible. I try my best to get through each day. Im here because I love having a place where other people understand what Im going through, although i have a hard time opening up.

Hello I'm Alexa. New to 7 cups. I did this to make me feel better. I'm awful at talking to others in person and have overprotective parents. I would like to control my anxiety because it is currently controlling me. I want to stop caring about what other think. And I really to change! ♥️

Hi, I stress myself out in situations that you will probably find stupidly silly . For example, today I am so shaky and panicky because I am currently about to go into my last year of secbary school and I am a VERY nostalgic person and the thought of things ending just sends me into panic overdrive so this last year will be on of my worst night mares 😂 not only will I have the stress of GCSEs but also my school life ending AHHHH. Not only that, but my only friend will be movig very far away in the summer holidays after year 11 so that doesn't help much ether😶any advice on how not to have a mental breakdown this year ????

Hi, my name is Dani. I haven't been diagnosed with anything, but my anxiety is an issue. I'm just looking for support, help, and to learn more about myself.

Hello members! I am Geminii. I am glad to get this platform to talk about anxiety and related issues. Anxiety is a system of responses our body gives to any stressor, be it external or internal. We all experience one or the other form of anxiety in our lives. It's inevitable. What we can do is that we accept that yes our homeostasis is disrupted and then ensure that we are surrounded by people who genuinely care for us. Just keep hope this too shall pass.

Hi

I tend to over thinking everything which leads to worry. This worry makes me feel anxious and I second guess myself a lot.

Hi everyone,

I think my main problem is anxiety, but it comes and goes quite drastically, I dont know if thats normal or not. I have always kind of been the person who is "always ok" and always helping others get through thier problems, but have never really been brave enough to talk about my problems and i think it finally got to me. So im looking forward to learning more about this, and meeting people with a similar issue. :)

Hi, I'm Brooke.

I am a 20 something who gets extremely anxious about all sorts of things, but especially when it's possible I may give a "wrong" answer. I am a teacher and I have a lot of anxiety in this profession. I often get stuck because I'm so afraid of losing control in my classroom or having a bad lesson.

Hello everybody
I'm new here. My problem is fear of faliure, whenever I'm faced with a challenge my heart starts pounding, my hands start sweating and sometimes I hyperventilate. That's why I have had such a bat time during my studies, the exams would bring on full blown panick attacks. It took me 8 years to get my batchelors degree. This only worsened my low self esteem. Now I'm supposed to go to germany for my masters degree, but I'm terrified, again afraid of faliure. This is a big problem for me, because of it I have missed many great opportunities that have presented to me over the years. My life in te past few years has basically been on pause. Also no love life to speak of, because I feel like I have nothing to offer to my perspective partner.
