I'm nineteen. I think the past two years have been the worst for my anxiety, what with graduating from high school and starting my first semester in college...

I'm 29 and new here. :action-smiley-065: My anxiety started about six years ago, but I've been dealing with other "issues" since I was 15. It's difficult to determine which came first, however. Did I have anxiety and used my self-destructive behavior to mask it, or did my anxiety stem from the self-destruction? I suppose it doesn't really matter in the long run lol. Glad to be here!

I answered "33-42," since I turn 33 in July.  I always heard your thirties were supposed to be the best years of your life. . .mine have just brought on a lot of anxiety, not to mention pounds.  ::)

I will second that!

Just turned 38

Still wondering what happened to 18

I'm 19. I'm told by my mother that I've had anxiety problems related to sleep since I was very young but my first vivid memories of an anxiety disorder in the form I have it now was 4 years ago.

Any of you ever feel like you're experiencing, or have experienced a quarter-life crisis?

Well, I am 38 but will be 39 in two days.  My OCD kicks in, it seems, every few years where I think I will do awful things to myself or others.  It is pure HELL!  My Dr. assured me that it is the OCD and I will not hurt anyone.  Thank Goodness.  So scary though.. :(

I'm in my early 30's.  My GAD started in early childhood, and somehow it wasn't diagnosed until this year.  I think my depression has always concerned the docs and they never really looked into an anxiety disorder.  This year has been hell on earth with a serious flare in my GAD--so many physical symptoms.

I have to hold on to the hope that I will improve with age.  My dad has GAD and said his physical symptoms are almost gone.  He's in his 60's.

I think there is something to the fact that anxiety could be hereditary.  I am 35 now and my anxiety started as a young child.  I beleive it had to do with my mom being very anxious and her mom as well, but also because of losing my dad at a young age too.
I am worse now than I ever have been with anxiety, panic disorder and depression.  I am having a hard time getting a grip on it now.  Hoping that new meds will do the trick.  :pray:
(Dont know about it getting better with age, wish I did.)

I am 36.  I believe anxiety is my peace stolen from me due to one thing or another whether it be: a) hormone, b) stress, C) environment.  d) abuse or,
 e) all the above with so much more to add. 
I have it and I am trying to not it have me.
