Hi, I'm 21 years old and I'm from Vancouver, Canada. I've been dealing with generalized anxiety since the age of 14. These past few years though it's become severe and I have developed many irrational phobias. I've also become completely dependant on my boyfriend. That is until he broke up with me and kicked me out 2 weeks ago. I'm back at his place now but I have to leave on April 1st. We're working on things but I have to live by myself for a couple of months and go to counselling. I had my first psychologist appointment yesterday and I feel hopeful but I still struggle everyday. I'm looking to meet people that understand what it's like. I'm sure everyone here knows how frustrating it is to try and explain how you're feeling to people who don't have anxiety. :)
