severe anxiety
The story
I hate it soo much!! I hate it here, I hate existing so badly because I'm anxious every single second, I feel as though everyone's eyes are on me, and every time I move, it feels like I'm a robot because I'm conscious of my every movement. I move and talk how people want me to, and it's so hard to be myself because I fear that I will be judged. My anxiety is so bad I can't even show my true colors to my friends. I know they're good people, but I'm just scared. So scared, you know? I know they won't judge for every little thing but even so, I'm terrified. My traumas won't let me be the person I wish to be; I'm always holding myself back because I'm just so anxious. I hate feeling like this because I'm wasting my whole life acting like someone I'm not.

Dude, no need to feel like this!! Life ain't that serious, you know? It's all about how you see it... Anxiety is tough, but you can work through it! 💪
'Don't worry, be happy.' Good vibes only, man. Things can get better if you let them. 🌟 You got this!
man, you're kinda right but it's not that simple! saying "don't worry be happy" isn't a magic fix; anxiety's like a perpetual loop in cognitive behavioral terms, you know… got to do more than just vibes!! it's about rewiring those thought patterns and yeah it takes time and effort; but totally, things can get better if you work on that internal dialogue,,,, keep pushing through and you'll see improvement;
wow I feel ya I been there too... anxiety is a real struggle man... it's like.... never-ending honestly... it's like your mind's constant battleground and I get why you hate it... I remember when I couldn't be myself either, it's exhausting and kinda draining... 😞 I hope you find some peace cause it can feel impossible sometimes yknow...
yeah i totally get it!! anxiety's the worst feeling ever :( had the same thing for like ages; it's so tough trying to be you when your mind says no constantly... it's like being trapped in your own head! it's draining and exhausting 😓 been there and it ain't easy..
Yeah, anxiety feels like a relentless cycle of hyperawareness and social inhibition. It's frustrating. 😥 When your autonomic nervous system always has you on high alert, it's like you're stuck in this feedback loop that's hard to break free from.
You're aware that people won't judge every little thing, and yet those cognitive distortions keep popping up; and it's exhausting, really. I hope you find some helpful coping mechanisms, though. It can be a really long journey, you know.
i totally get what you're sayin; anxiety sucks and it's like a constant shadow hanging over you!!! it's exhausting trying to act normal when ya feel like an imposter all the time... been there too, man, it's like a never-ending rollercoaster ride in your head; i remember those days when i'd just freeze up in social situations ’cause i was sure everyone was lookin' right at me!!! wish i had some magic answer but all i can say is you're not alone in this,,,, it's tough but hang in there and just take it one day at a time
