years of severe anxiety
« on: November 09, 2012, 04:07:47 PM »
hello,

I have had severe anxiety for as long as I can remember. It started back when I was a little girl being afraid to go to school because I would get bullied. Then my dad died when I was 16 and it has just gone down hill from there. I am now 22 and currently am terrified to be away from my mom and have separation anxiety while she is at work. I so scared I am going to lose her since I lost my dad. I forgot to mention I am an only child and the rest of my family lives in another state. I am so afraid of being by myself now that my days consist of hanging out with my neighbor who has been so kind to take me under her wing. She has suffered from anxiety herself and is like an aunt to me. I recently had a nervous breakdown which right now I am just trying to bounce back from but it hasn't been easy. I am just trying to take the days hour by hour and pray for the best. A friend of my mom suggested this site as a good support system since she herself uses it as a tool. I hope this helps me.

Though you are afraid to be yourself, even though I'm also new I highly suspect that this forum is the best and safest place to be yourself :)

hope you manage to bounce back ok, i know it can seem like the hardest thing in your life but remember that nothing is impossible and what ever you are going through, you are not alone
