Im not sure if I have Anxiety or not

blueast January 16th, 2020

I hope I dont but I am clearly not very normal, even my parents tell me Im not normal but they never really did anything to help.

im scared of many things like, people finding out anything about me, people being able to read my mind, people are constantly saying bad things about me, someone is always watching me, someone can see what Im doing on my electronics and the list goes on

this one time I had a PowerPoint presentation to do and I was so anxious about making it. So I made it as plain as possible because I was afraid to have even a small ounce on uniqueness in me.

Im also always embarrased over the most random things like, if I skipped school to go to a concert or something, I would get so scared when I come back that people will ask me where Ive been. So I always use the classic going out of town for a doctors appointment


im young, still 13. Id love to go to a therapist and ask them myself but the country where I live in doesnt support mental healthcare. Im also broke. And I dont trust my parents (Again Im embarrassed)

I know people on this platform cant diagnose me with a mental illness but I really need to know if the things I listed seem like symptoms of anxiety or any other mental illness. Or am I just shy?

i really hope to at least get a reply

This seems like alot of things your going through I think you need to ask a doctor or your teacher about what's going on or even a close friend so you know what they think it is. But I have anxiety disorder and panic disorder and it kinda built up to that conclusion that I might have anxiety because I worry alot and I had a panic attack so I would say just check that all out with a doctor mabey

@blueast

well you are very young to have those problems my dear, if you don't treat or find the best way to get rid of it, you are going to get worst!! And it's horrible!! Trust me

i think you have some kind of fear, anxiety lives there. And also social phobia!!

wish you all the best my darling

I've been in a really similar situation and thought similar things. Is this just my personality or is this more than that. It's a hard thing to judge especially when you are in it.
