Welcome home, Little Monsters.

Anxiety--- I am learning how to breathe again, and you all are helping my lungs take life. <3

My parents both have really bad anxiety problems and I've had them come and pass throughout my life, but as college, a college that I hate and plan to transfer out gets more and more difficult, I keep waking up to full on panic attacks and its damaging my ability to perform well in school, so my great GPA is falling fast--- not to mention I'm in emotional hell. I'm just so busy and I have no sense of direction anymore. However, it's time to face the music. I have to face my fears and trust myself and my capabilities to take on problems... Cause I've been drowning in escapism and self doubt for too long. I'm getting put on medication this week and I hope it helps. I'm a head-case currently and I'm glad you all have my back :)

I'm so sorry you're going through that--anxiety is a horrible thief of joy. And you are most definitely not a headcase, you are human. We are imperfect and extremely susceptible to emotions such as anxiety. I struggle with anxiety on a daily basis. It's a tough battle, but the more I face it the more I learn about myself and am able to handle it. If you ever need help or have a bad day, please, please shoot me a message...I've been there.

Stay strong monster. I suffer from anxiety too. I can't do anything alone because of it. I hope you'll get better. <3

The anxiety meds they will put you on, is just the same as anti-depressants they prescribe for the chronically depressed. I found it didn't help for my exam anxiety, so I started by altering my diet and exercising more. Also yoga helps a lot. You can also try herbal/homeopathic or oraganic aids that assist with relieving anxiety. Speak to your doctor or therapist about available options. But the fact remains, there is unsolved problems (whatever they are) you are faced with every waking day. And you have reached a point in your life where you can't escape from it anymore. You now have to face it, deal with it and manage it to the best of your ability. Hope this helps. Best of luck, best wishes and lots of monsterlove. Xoxo

Stay strong darling! Try to focus on positive things and also change your ideas by doing things you love to do. It gets better with Time and efforts!

Rainbow Amie@rainbowamie 11y

I understand what you're going through. I'm at a job I hate and I often feel the panic as I get closer to the facility. It's terrible to feel like you have no control, to feel the flood of adrenaline, the shaking, the tunnel vision. Just know you are not alone!!

Aaron Stewart@aarstewart 11y

Praying for you love. It will get better

Michelle Holland@peacelovepears 11y

I have anxiety too and it can be hard to deal with. Good luck with the medication. Along with meds, seeing a counselor is recommended for anxiety. While for me, its been trial and error.. I hope things work out for you. Stay strong xx

honey, anxiety is one of the most hardest things people have to deal with, i have it, i trust me it's not easy at all, but i guess some people find ways to cope with it and others struggle too, one solution is to see a Councillor just to open up why you might be getting panic attacks as soon as you wake up, yeah i totally agree i'm in my last year of college, i try to keep my mind off it, but it's controlling me, i can't concentrate, hopefully the medication will help you but i suggest seeing someone to talk about it that might also help, if you need to talk just message me <3 :) stay strong, it will only get better, got to go through the bad stuff to get to the good stuff <3 the worst thing is to look on the internet, because it's not all correct information
