whats the point anymore, nothing ever goes my way. im starting to think weather its actually me.. i suffer from severe anxiety.. 24.7 its just me feeling like im going to die. im so unhappy, i cant do anything i want i cant even spend time with my boyfriend because i just want to be at home alone. my friends leave me out i just dont even know who to turn to.. everyone else has their best friends and friends to talk to and all mine think its funny to push someone else around and make them feel crap i just want to be someone else and not live this horrible life its so unfair:(

I saw your post on the other topic. I too was 17 when I started on the anxiety. PLEASE do not give up! When I was 17 there was NO HELP. But today there are so many options. You can get through this. Have you been depressed for a while? I mean, was there depression first and then anxiety came along too? Thats what happened to me. Do you know when the anxiety started? Please don't let this run your life! Do your parents help you? Do they understand? I am just hoping you have good resources around you. I didn't have anyone and I suffered alone. My mother laughed it off. I tried to get help back then but it just wasn't something people talked about or understood. Today we have places like this to talk to other people who DO UNDERSTAND! Hang in there! I know it's hard! Praying for you!

Thankyou
My mun just shouts at me. She has tried with booking me with counselling. My anxiety started when i was 14.. i was worried about EVERYTHING.. but i never really had GAD just a few panic attacks here and there.. once they had gone i was fine.. then as i grew older and knew more things and symptoms from google i became worse, i cry every day, i had anxiety everyday, i have panic attacks all the time my life feels like one big panic attack and it's horrible i always think im dying of a disease.. always think i'm going to die,there isn't really anyone to help me.. even my counsellor just said.. just  pretend your not having one, that was it. i pray for the day im fine

I am so sorry that you feel alone! I understand how awful that feels. If it's one thing I have learned for sure... it is that people who have not had these feelings DO NOT AND CAN NOT understand. Finding a worthy therapist is a huge challenge. I used to have one but he moved away
DO NOT GOOGLE! try very hard to not Google! It makes things so much worse. Thank God there was no Google in 1987!!!! Please know that everyone on this site understands and is here for you. I only recently found this site myself. I am happy to find it because of the fact that we do feel so alone. It's kind of interesting that the Hypochondria thread has the most users and posts. That really surprised me since I really thought it was so uncommon. I pray a lot. Through all of this that is the one thing I am sure of! GOD! I hope you are feeling better and please feel free to contact me if you need to. :)

Thank you it's really nice to know, it's so wierd how no one understands this whole thing.. i think i'm unwell but the anxiety doesn't help it and i just always want to be in my bed which i've learnt to associate with my comfort zone, i wish i could find out whats wrong with me then treat my anxiety it's so horrible!
