Hi, I am new here, I have experienced anxiety for as long as I can remember. I seriously need help because it will destroy everything if I don't change things soon. I am just too scared and confused about where to start.

Hey everyone! I'm new here on 7cups. I'm never the one to open up to others so since it's to hard for me to talk about things I thought that maybe writing about them on here might help. I've never been to councelling or officially been diagnosed with anything, but I feel like I have some sort of generalized anxiety and some phobias.

@plumWalker3542 hey! how have you been? i think it's harder to actually think about what you might have. Maybe talking what triggers you and how you react to them might help you. it helps me when i review mine in my head. i think you try with all your might afterwards to not let that happen again. So what has been going on with you?

@gregariousMango8490

Hey! Aw, thanks for the reply! I think there's lots of things that trigger me because I am so afraid of judgement. So basically everytime I leave my house I feel anxious since anyone could judge me for the way I look, the way I'm dressed, etc. When I have a set routine (ex. like during the school year), I'm less anxious about that stuff since I see the same people all the time. Also I have emetophobia (fear of vomit) so that also causes me a bit of anxiety everytime I leave the house because I can't control other people, so there's nothing I can do and I can't predict if someone is going to feel sick and throw up. I know all my fears are completely irrational...but I don't know how to stop my mind!

Hi, i'm new here. I have had anxiety for nearly a year now and it has really strained my friendships however I chatted with them today and we're basically having a fresh start and thats why i'm here and doing something about it. My rants and worries are now mostly going to be here and our friendship is going back to normal which i'm so happy about. Here is where I will come when i worry :)

@florenceelsie

Happy to hear that your friendships seem to be getting back together!! I find my friends are so important for my anxiety. None of them actually know about it, but just hanging out with people and being distracted helps. So hope you and your friends can do lots of fun stuff together :)

Hi , ive been on 7cups for around 7 months now. I recently decided to join this community, mainly because my path suggested it.

Wynta62 August 13th, 2017

Hi there. I'm new to the group, and have been experiencing some major anxiety (GAD) for almost 2 months now. I've definitely been struggling trying to manage it. I'm hoping that being able to interact in this group will help me as I attempt to manage my thoughts, worry, etc.
