Is it normal to feel more anxious when you're alone?

Completely normal for people with anxiety to feel more anxious about things when they are alone. It’s hard and having anxiety is hard

Yes. When you are alone, it gives you a chance to ruminate and fixate on negative thoughts that you may be having. It's very hard to get out of so it is important to keep yourself busy and to stay positive.

Actually, yes! When I am alone, sometimes I think about everything going on in my life and I become ridden with anxiety and have to work to calm myself down.

Absolutely, when you're alone you have less distractions, and whether you like the person you're with or not, you always feel less scared of an event with someone you know around than you would by yourself.

I believe that it is equally normal to feel anxious at anytime. Whether it is alone or surrounded by a huge group of people. We all have our unique triggers and stressors. Learning how to cope through an anxious moment is the most important goal when it comes to anxiety.

I feel that it is more common when I am alone. Being with people helps to regulate emotions and instills a sense of support and community. Human connection is important! Having said that, it's important that we learn to enjoy our own company and thoughts.

Most definitely! When we are alone we tend to think more and cause ourselves to become more anxious than normal.

In my experience with anxiety, I find that as I have worked through a lot of my issues, anxious responses are more likely to arise when I am alone. I am not a big socialiser, but I find that if I have someone to talk to when I go shopping, my mind is occupied with conversation, rather than noticing any anxious thoughts/feelings. So, in my case, I fee that it is normal to be more anxious when I am alone. However, when I started having anxiety, I would avoid being with people because I was afraid they wouldn't understand what's happening, so I stayed home a lot and avoided the possibility of being triggered.

of course! feeling anxious when we are alone is normal because we were literaly created to have friends and be surrounded by others!

I think it is normal to feel more anxious when you're alone. It's something about the fact that no one is around to help you or listen to you that brings on feelings of anxiety.
