You don't have to talk anything. There is no need to hurry. Take your time as much as you need. It's just nice to know you're not alone.

It might be easier for you to start the conversation about your anxiety with a letter or a note. Doing something like this in writing can be a lot easier for sufferers of anxiety.

Social anxiety has made me feel this way many times. I would say you are already on the right path by posting this. Start by talking to a listener on 7 cups. They will help you. Baby steps are great when dealing with anxiety. Talking with someone can be scary because not everyone understands but thanks to 7cups and talking to people dealing with anxiety like mine I was able to talk to somebody. I hope this helped and feel free to message me if you would like to talk.

Having anxiety isn't something you should live with. Anxiety makes you stay in comfort zone where you can't progress. Let's make the first step out of comfort zone and go on a journey where you will become anxiety free :)

Whether we like it or not, we cannot always take care of ourselves on our own. We need others to help us along the way. You may pray about it. You may also journal about it for yourself. Write things down that are bothering you. Sometimes a step in the right direction comes from personal honesty with yourself. Once you admit that things are bothering you, you can more clearly see what paths you might take.

Hi! Anxiety can feel overwhelming, and sometimes so overwhelming that it's hard to even talk about. Have you considered trying to write down how you feel? If you write it down, you have it on paper, and then you can show it to whoever you want without having to actually break the ice by speaking. And once that ice is broken, maybe the person you're writing to will be willing to converse in whatever way helps you most.

You can use 7 cups! There are people who have experienced anxiety (myself included) that would love to talk to you about it.

I'll be glad to help you, my friend. It's okay to be anxious. I know how you feel. That feeling when nothing seems right, and when you feel the whole world is against you. But, what we have to do is, overcome that feeling. Because we cannot be defeated. You cannot be defeated. You have to fight your anxiety. Take help of those who love you. I hope everything works out for you. May god shower his blessings on you and may you do well. :)

The Facebook "Seen" message gives me a lot of anxiety! When I see that the person has "seen" the message, but does not reply, I start thinking about all the possible reasons why they would 'ignore' me... Does anyone else feel this? If so, how do you cope?
