My heart wants to cry whenever i see other people enjoying happy life without anxiety😭

[weebwhodoesntloveanime]

Just last year, I always laughed at someone who have anxiety until I experienced it. Anxiety is no joke at all. It weakens you emotionally, mentally and physically. Sad thing you can't just tell yourself to "not worry"

[itzone]

30 second on watching the video, I am already crying because I know that this is exactly what I feel. Tears is just dropping from my face while I am typing this comment

[akshayrao]

The most difficult thing is to
calm your self when you get anxiety attacks, to keep saying to your mind that everything is ok.

[Life-iook]

I get so scared of everything, I get scared about some of the most random things, a week ago I had a panic attack at like 12 am because I thought I had heart disease, because my wrist pulse wasent super strong or whatever, I just get so worked up, so anxious, so worried, so stressed about some of the most simplistic things and situations that can be easily solved, I don’t get a BREAK.

I remember several years ago I suffered from severe depression and mental disorder. I was addicted to illicit pills, alcohol, and smoking until I was recommended for psilocybin mushroom treatment. Psilocybin treatment saved my life honestly I'm 8 years clean now. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against anxiety and depression.

Anxiety attacks are the worst. I get anxious over the tiniest thing. I don't know how it is for others. But whenever I have an attack my legs get so weak and uncomfortable, it gets so hard to breathe and feel extremely nauseated. I often tell myself how little and insignificant it was and that I should not worry. But it's still so hard to keep up sometimes.

[kriketprayme]

It's an everyday struggle for me. 😭 I've been suffering from it for years now. I was on the verge of a panic attack today but I managed.

[justcheddar]

Sometimes I’ll have uncontrollable shaking or can’t even show my face to people because I feel so scared I almost cry or do cry actually

[twingoody]

My problem everyday. I'm so worn out from being tired. I dislike myself. Sometimes I feel like giving up, but I keep pushing hoping it stops someday.

[Sandra-hqxs]

i get anxiety in random parts of my day. sometimes i don’t even know why i feel anxious. that’s why i get confused because i’m not sure where my anxiety is coming from and why i feel the way i do. it’s also worst at night. my muscle tensions were so bad at one point that i would cry bc it wouldn’t go away. i have headaches everyday and i’m always tired. i want to visit a psychologist to get a proper diagnosis but i have no insurance :(

[josevazquez]

Thanks man it makes me feel a bit better while having this

[Robert-wpnd]

The use of magic mushrooms completely helps one get over depression and makes you feel like yourself.

[imstraightnotuntilryujinca]

my teacher told us to memorize something and recite it in front of our class. It was my turn already I memorized it all but I when I was in the front I forgot it all and I was having a harf time to breath, my heart beat so fast and I can't control my mind. My mind thinks that all my classmates are judging me. And everytime I talk to a person wether I knew it or not I feel so nervous and I'm thinking what will I gonna answer to them "what if my answer is wrong?" "what if I choose this and people around me doesn't like it?" when I'm in the crowd I feel like this people are looking at me and judging me even my family and friends my dumb mind thinks that these all people are judging me. "I just want to disappear in this world" this is what my mind always think. I'm also obsessed of cleaning my nephew noticed me that and he asked why I'm always cleaning eventho I'm done cleaning in that part. I'm scared in my future

[jossy..]

Anxiety attacks for me (i literally just had one by the way.
Heart aches
Chest pains
Head aches
Uncontrollable hyperventilating
Numb body
Not aware of reality
Neckaches
Lightheaded
Dizzy
Shaking
Dificulty breathing
Hair pulling

I just became aware that i have anxiety. My body has been reacting in so many different ways. I didn’t feel hunger or appetite for a month, my body got allergies and rashes for a week. I got tonsil stones also due to stress. I also just think of bad things that could happen all the time, every night.
I just want this to be over.

[fennecfox]

This made me feel better while going through anxiety.

[mo_imran]

Imma just leave this here:
Not diagnosed but I think I suffer from social anxiety and/or anxiety disorder. The pandemic really brought me to this realisation and made me more aware. Ever since I was a kid I never knew what was wrong with me I was always shy and never spoke out. But for some reason the word “anxiety” has always been stuck in my head way before I knew what it meant. I pick up my phone everyday and go through my contacts but I don’t see 1 person I feel is right to speak to. And I’ve gained a lot of weight recently cause of my sedentary life. But what makes it worse is that everyone I see they’re first comment is about my weight gain and it’s getting a bit too much to handle. I have tried so much to avoid self harm but I just can’t find someone trustworthy enough to speak to. Every time I try to say something it feels like I’m impaired from speaking. I hope I get help someday soon cause I don’t know how much longer I can take all of this.

[A_dumb_person-DNa]

For me it's like when I go around people it feels like people think that I'm ugly or they might laugh at me for doing the wrong thing in public I stay I my room all the time I am always shy around people and in big crowds I just stay in the house that's where it makes me feel safe and secure inside so that's a thing about me🙂

[hallucinationsss_]

I'm so sad and get anxiety attack when I see others talking cause I'm so alone 😫😭

[nickgilbert]

my anxiety has been close to crippling lately. tingly face, constant sweating, feeling frozen and unable to converse about it with my partner and it just keeps mounting up. looking into therapy after watching this.
