We all get anxious at some points in our lives but some of us are
more anxious than others. While there are different types of anxiety
disorders I have never named my anxiety. What I mean by this is I have
never been to the doctors and spoke about my anxiety for someone to tell
me what it is I suffer from; maybe I should but I haven't. I have
always been a shy worrying child but it is only since I have grown up
that I've considered that I suffer with anxiety. I am an overthinker who
lets my anxious mind stop me from making the most of my life; this is
how I suffer. I worry every day about little things that seem silly to a
lot of people and I sometimes avoid situations because I'm just too
anxious. I really suffered with it not so long ago where a situation of
unemployment + anxiety + hopelessness = depression
(I'll speak about this again in another post some time). It was a
really tough time and I'm glad I'm getting better but anxiety still
affects me.
Anxiety, for me, is an uncontrollable and
overwhelming record of worries repeating over and over and over in my
head like a bad song.
