Nerves are good, you can channel that adrenaline for energy. Pop out of those blocks. The only thing I tell myself is to have fun. When you don’t put the pressure on yourself, you actually run relaxed and faster then if you were all nervous and tensed up.
Got a meet tomorrow first time running varsity running the 110&300 hurdles
Literally before getting into your blocks shout like a alpha
All I have is a pacer test and a mile run in gym and really I feel kinda sick
Edit: just watched it all and I feel a lot better. Ty so much
i have a 2 mile race today and i’m panicking sm thanks for the help
Kudos for the Video clip! Excuse me for chiming in, I would appreciate your initial thoughts. Have you considered Lammywalness Erase Depression Guide (probably on Google)? It is a good exclusive product for beating depression fast minus the normal expense. Ive heard some incredible things about it and my GF finally got great results with it.
Such a wonderful video! 1. Do things badly and don’t aim for perfection. Just do it! 2. Forgive yourself. ❤
I have more anxiety…I can’t share my problems….I m a self motivation only
I love nervous because it gives me adrenaline and makes me ignore everything but I hate it the same time cause i mess up I was in a 55m got disqualified
I just yell at myself ” WHY ARE YOU SCARED, YOU SHOULDN’T BE”. it helps me a lot
3:19 sorry bro but track and field is not a individual sport because they do baton races
I get nervous a lot and I see I lot of people I feel like my vision is blurry for example when Iam at school and I need to get to my lunch table when I Iam walking I get this feeling like everyone is judging me and when I see them laugh and turn to their friend it all gets worst I start to panic and I hate the idea of just peeing like anywhere idk if this has something to do but I certainly don’t think is normal to be. Scared to to pee in any public place of even my house I don’t like it and sometimes I see people looking at a place that is like near me m and I blush and get sweaty palms and I do socialize so that is why I think is different then social anxiety because I just talk to my friends that I have known since elementary and iam in high school but I rarely make any friends and I still get nervous even tho they know me for years it’s hard idk…
Who else is watching because they hella scared for their sports carnival?
Ive got sports day tomorrow and I have to race against my best friend who is super fast. We haven’t raced in ages so I dont know what to expect but I really want to beat her because everyone is saying she is the fastest in the school! Wish me luck im super nervous!!
I’m still really scared to race. My friends say I am fast but I don’t know if I am that good. I don’t know what to do. Please help me
This feeling, this feeling damn, gets me everytime before a race starts, it makes my legs wobbly which puts me at a disadvantage
When I get nervous before racing my legs feel weak and wobbly. Any advice
NIM: It’s really annoying because we got given a letter about an athletics competition yesterday and the tournament is tomorrow so they gave us two days to prepare and I was like ok that’s fine and then I saw what event I was doing……. the 1500m…..I have never done a competitive 1500m before so I did it against my dad that night and I was ok, I didn’t stop and I kept the same pace throughout but then I don’t know what kind of people I’m gonna be up against cause they might start off at a pace I am not use too so I am just really scared I’m gonna be at the back or start off at the same pace and then not be able to keep it up, I need tips right now but it’s probably too late because by the time I see the reply I would have already done the race.
This video is literally talking about me.

I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and adjustment disorder with depressive mood in October 2019. It was the words i needed to hear because i always wonder why overthink, feeling jumpy, nervousness and sometimes very quiet when I first meet people. Since i been diagnosed with this, i been coping better by being more active by going to the gym and talk to others about it. For those that have anxiety, you are not alone!
What you told about sprinting part that actually was with me
There is an event and I don’t want to go Bec of my social anxiety and my dad is forcing me to go…..
I’m so scared now I don’t want to go I think I will mess everything Bec this event is about musical instruments and I play the piano and I have to play a song infront of a lot of people..
I hate to do a 50% dash and i felt dizzy on the oractice i even threw up
My life is anxiety now it’s taken over me and I can’t cope with it anymore
I am going to see today who is going to the meet. We’re outside all day and I’m scared that I won’t know what to wear if it’s cold hot hungry need to pee like hello pleasee
maybe this will help: stop thinking about “what if’s” that makes it 10 times worse when it has like a 30% chance of coming true trust me i’ve ben through heck and back with anxiety what if’s just make you think what could happen instead of what will
Who else needs to take a piss every 20 minutes at their meets
My list for tomorrow….
-400 meter relay
-400 meter race
-high jump
I’m in fifth grade and I’m scared for life even though we’re the best school there
I run hurdles, I have for four year and I have fallen a couple times before and also my times aren’t as good as last year and that makes my mind scattered and I find it super hard to focus because I’m so scared of falling or not making my time again. I’ve tried visualizing me finishing it but the thought of messing up won’t leave my head. It’s also my senior year so I feel this pressure to be my best.
I don’t think I get nervous, I just feel intimidated at times
Hey… I just wanted to let people who struggle with this disorder know that it CAN pass, I went through this for years, and now it is so much better, and it’s getting better by the day… Please seek help, talk to good and benevolent friends if you have some, or other benevolent people that you might know, or see a good therapist (you must feel whether that’s a good one if you feel comfortable or not, right away)
I know it is overwhelming and that you are hurting but it shall pass if you seek help, and, also,: please do not try to make the feeling disappear when you feel anxious, or it will be worse, BUT rather accept it, say to yourself: I feel anxious (and to others if you are surrounded by benevolent people) and I tell you that just by acknowledging your feeling and receiving it, it will be better!!!
Good luck, you can do it!
Yeah if i hear laughing, i have to listen carefully to hear it’s not crying. It’s annoying as hell
What helps me sometimes is if I’m in one on one conversation and I find myself shying away I’ll take a break and say I’m going to the bathroom and have a lil pep talk in the mirror drink some water give myself some affirmations
Yeah because when I am in the middle of my fucking government class my first thought is get me a fucking journal.
It’s so hard dealing with this! I feel like I can’t talk to anyone about this
I have a lisp and have social anxiety what’s the worst thing could happen to me?
I wish there was a instant help for anxiety. I have a job interview in a few days and every time I think about it, I get anxiety and want to avoid it. But I keep telling myself I won’t know the result till I try but another side of me keep saying I will just embarrass myself… Inner battle with myself is so tiring
I have a Gymboree tomorrow and I’m running the 400. I’m decently fast…kinda… but my endurance is very low at the moment because I haven’t been active since soccer season 4 months ago. I’m afraid I’m not going to be able to finish or I’m going to be last.
idk if my phobia is this,i just fear human,i fear even in the room only have 10 ppl and even that i know them
This video helped but my exam anxiety is ridiculous i study so much and then mess up big time in exams then i end up feeling sad and hopeless
laying in bed muttering “I’m okay” does nothing..
I know that you have to take control but it’s not that easy. When it gets really bad like that, nothing brings me back. All I can do is fall asleep and pray i feel better in the morning
This stats need an update… social media makes it a lot more tough
If my competition comes with no track spikes that actually helps me feel more confident lol
Listen to some hype music get super fucking hype and jus race and u won get that nervous if I don do that I will be shivering at the blocks
I have yet to find someone faster than me, but no matter what I’m always nervous in my meets, even though I know I’ll be winning this. I just don’t understand why.
Nah but my serious problem is that I gotta take the biggest shit before I run my race.

I’m only in edge school track and I do shot disc 800 4×400 800 medley and I have district tomorrow and I am really hard on myself and feel like crap if I get even a tiny mess up
I have anxiety and this cause me to overthinking if I wanted to do something. And when I overthinking what might happen, I hurt my chest and it gives me stomach ache.
How to solve this I do not know, but if I wanted to do something, I push myself to just do it without thinking. Thinking too much will lead to over fear and shyness.
THIS VID. WAS PERFECT FOR ME… AT MY LAST MEET IT WAS SO NERVOUS, THIS REALLY!!!!!!!!!! HELPS. Thanks Nick
I hade anxiety for years, went away for a few months then I’m depressed and scared and feel like I. Going mad
I’m wanting to glow up, I’ve been running on the treadmill for ages for an hour straight but I found it boring, so I’ve started running outside last week and it was harder than I expected now I’m sat in bed at 8am freaking out, I want to go on a run but I’m so freaked out right now
you just made me worry even more. 2 minutes of explaining what im all about, damn.
When I wake up I am covered in sweat like I peed the bed. Heart racing. Suicidal depression and anxiety right when I wake up and feeling as if I am going to or have to puke. Every. Single day. I go to work. On my bicycle cause I like to ride on that and not in a car. When I get to work everyone is just staring at me and watching all my moves and making sure I don’t steal anything even though I work there and am a good employee. I can’t even see my family. I can’t even clean my fish tanks or play games I like it watch a movie. Music is pretty much the only thing I do and we times it makes everything much worse cause of the music I play see times is… Not positive. Every time I hear someone talk about these things and explain themselves or things they see. It seems like a joke to me. Everybody is so much different from one another and no one really seems to understand that. Unless you see someone every single day and express your feelings and emotional state you’re in… I’d say almost nothing will help at least in my experience. I’ve never seen a professional. I am my professional but I’m not doing a very good job at it cause I don’t even know anything about myself just what I think others looking at me think and say is what I know about myself I guess. Idk
Do any of y’all know how to bring this up to your parents so you can get help?
My problem is that I’ve spent the last 5 years saying I such at sports and not really trying but now I’m trying and I’m not scared about how good or bad I’ll be it just ppl will be surprised either way and I hate ppl cheering me on as well
Really good talk and to make it even better she is absolutely gorgeous
I have anxiety, depression, OCD and a serious learning disability. I was in special ed in school. I’m not like everyone else. I tried college 3 times and it didn’t work out for me. I am who I am and I can’t change that. I learn to cope with it in my own way.
i’ve gone to the ER now twice thanks to anxiety or panic attacks. same thing happens when I get there I get relaxed eventually. so if it’s your first time just go. after that try to calm yourself down cuz it will stop. even if it’s just enough to go to sleep. it will pass. remember too its all mental. its hard, i know, but you have to keep busy somehow. do chores, hold something tightly, pat your animal, anything to distract but not avoid your anxiety cuz ignoring it will make it come back stronger. trust me i’ve had strong panic and anxiety attacks at night after ignoring them in the day. Journal does help. took a while but it does by me seeing my thoughts and seeing how useless or dumb they were.
I’ve been eating lunch at school for years and It still feels like the first time every time lol I feel like everyone is looking at mehh
There seems to be a chemical tie-in between low vitamin D, low serratonin and anxiety. If your D is low, then the serratonin in your brain is lowand if that is low, anxiety is high. Google it.
i never really knew that i needed this whole chanel, y’all are amazing <3
One of the most pleasing Ted talks.. No one can explain the acute pain of a person who suffers from anxiety/panic disorder better than this.

Does music calm you down or get you excited? Let us know in the comments below
The social distancing ruined my progress with social anxiety, I used to be getting a lot better but then I just stopped seeing people altogether and I couldn’t practice. Getting out of quarantine is going to be hard, I went into a store the other day and it was pretty bad, when before the social distancing I was getting a lot better. I have to go to church with my family tomorrow and I’m scared.
I’ve been investigating top treatment for anxiety and found an awesome website at Aghy magic method (google it if you are interested)
I’m literally crying reading all those comments

What create anxiety and hatred school because I don’t want to fail a class and I hate the school system with all my hatred if only I was stronger than the class so I can already move on to have a job. What I’m scared the most is to fail a class and I don’t want to retake it sometimes I can get stress during exam and it affects me does anyone has school anxiety
For anyone struggling with depression/anxiety, or just someone who wants a way to calm themselves down I would really recommend looking up “wim hof guided breathing method” on YouTube (it has 10mil views so u know it’s real). It has helped me a lot with my anxiety. I would also recommend trying meditating, there are also great videos for that on YouTube. Remember that no matter how bad things are, they will get better.
The first half of this video was meandering and pointless. The second half was so good I had to take notes.
The video that was requested for social anxiety is now out. Hope those who are struggling, find this helpful. Feel free to share it with someone you know who may find it helpful! Also, for those who don’t know, we’re struggling a bit with the finances to sustain the operations. We really want to do our best to push out as many videos as we can on various topics and help as many people as possible, but it’s really financially straining. Hence, we want to ask for help (shamelessly) to check out/grab a copy of our digital magazine bundles: https://iheartpsychology.myshopify.com/products/psych2go-magazine-1-4-adhd-mental-health-substance-abuse-social-anxiety-digital It comes with 5 digital issues each covering a specific theme. The goal with the magazines are to hopefully have them distributed in schools and shopper markets so that more people can learn about various psych and mental health issues. Feel free to touch base with us if you have any inquiries! [email protected] Thanks for all the support until now!

Does someone want to start an insta group to talk about anxiety
If I do it badly I’ll get physically beaten for it (home) or fired (work).
This motto is nice in situations where mistakes are tolerated. Don’t tell me to use a new motto. Tell society to stop setting such high standards and then punishing those who don’t comply.
Im litterally crying wen she started talkin about the symptoms
My anxiety is causing depression. And it makes me think of my past and how happy I was.

I still hold back to my past, I feel anxious and uncomfortable when thought hits my mind. I try to hide myself socially, afraid of believing again. I changed places but still, I feel I am being followed by a shadow. I tried Meditation, still I get suicidal thoughts. I just let it go with my tears.
Anxiety sucks the worse kind is when it’s not triggered by situational or external factors
I’m just curious: is anyone taking an anti-depressant medication called Zoloft to combat their anxiety?
I still need to work on this. I tried the advice here and stopped putting off ice skating and ended up with a bad knee sprain. Have to keep going but now I’m scared to try new things or go back into my old hobbies again
I always feel like
people are judging me
people are talking behind my back
people are talking bad about every little thing I do
I always feel like I’m not good enough
that people are hating me
I have low self-esteem
I just posted a new video about a similar topic on my channel if anyone is looking for additional tips (:
The lockdown is depressing. When I have nothing to do I overthink a lot. I can’t sleep at night. I stopped talking with my family I feel like they hate me. I feel like even my friends hate me. They don’t talk to me. I hate this feeling everyday where I wake up feeling sad. I wish this could go away. I don’t know why I stopped being excited over my interests it feels tiring when you are doing nothing. I hate it
I think she was expecting something from the audience at 4:11 but there was only dead silence
The physical anxiety is unbearable like the constant adrenaline that I feel for no reason I hate it
I have useful tips for people suffering with social anxiety like me
1. Write a journal it works pretty well
2. When you’re presenting something act like you don’t give a fuck (only use this as a last resort)
Every waking day of my life since 20 years old. I always thought I was gonna have a sudden stroke. Every waking day if I’m not worried about having a sudden stroke. I’m worried about having a sudden seizure. I’m not epileptic. If I’m not worrying about having a sudden stroke or seizure. I’m worrying about having a sudden heart attack. It’s non stop. It wouldn’t go away the bad thoughts kept racing in my head. I was always worrying about dieing all of a sudden. It was freaking me out really bad. So bad. That. I’m actually against taking medicine. My whole family history is against taking any type of medication. But in my situation I had to do something because my anxiety was a little more then enough to handle. I talked with my doctor and he told me I should try 20mg citalopram HBR. He said it was an SSRI a. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor. And he said that it would help me and my sudden attacks on thoughts of sudden death. So I took the citalopram HBR 20mg. And so far it’s been 60 days so far since I’ve been taking it. And it’s a blessing from god because this medication works so good. I’m finally happy now. My whole overall general feeling of well being is completely different now. I’m not depressed all of my sudden thoughts of sudden death all come to a complete sudden halt. I’m able to think now I don’t forget where I put things anymore. I’m just saying from my own experience if you got anxiety as bad as I did or any anxiety at all.
Talk to your doctor and see if citalopram HBR 20mg is right for you. Because it changed my life it’ll slow any racing thoughts your anxiety might bring as a symptom
I have social anxiety and it sucks going to school and doing presentations and group pr
Do something for someone else but when they get too close they’ll give you more anxiety. As most people with anxiety are not big people players. (introverted problems)
When I’m anxious I run my fingers through my hair…one of my friends suggested I should do this singing competition, and I couldn’t stop stammering and touching my hair
Let’s just say, it was embarrassing

I’d really recommend watching the wim hof breathing guide for beginners. It really helped me, and it takes 10 minutes to do. There is a lot of interesting stuff on his channel

good well informed talk people cope in there own way or guldance from others keep, moving stop thinking look past the clouds and find your sunshine.
I have a question that I’m hoping someone can answer to clear things up for me, I’m very social and I love making new friends. But whenever I stop spending time with them I suddenly get these rush of emotions and start criticize and judge everything I was doing. For example I would feel anxious of my voice and how I looked and acted. Those this count as social anxiety or is it something else?
My son can run half marathon’s without having any kind of anxiety but when it comes to running in high school races for cross country or track he has a lot of anxiety for some reason. I’ve been trying to have him do yoga before to relax him self I don’t know if that would work what would you recommend
When I was little I was a very shy person I never had real friends or friends because I can’t talk to people or even say hello at all and I was very lonely at school and sometimes I eat alone in lunch time while others talk and having fun except me. Also when I am class teachers always pick groups for me but I struggle to be in groups and to talk in the group for fitting in but it made so much worst. And even in when I was in class I never participate or raise my hand because I hate being wrong all the time it’s ok to make mistakes but I just didn’t want people to think that I am always The Quiet Girl just because I can’t talk in class. Also Right now 16 years old I really struggle to communicate with people and I am alway shy to my family and also my friends too. There is another problem I always get nervous no matter what I do I get so sweaty and nervous and my body shakes when I get called in class and talking to friends or family and participate in the class.
I really not sure if I have social anxiety but I do struggle to talk to people.
Symptoms that I have:
Nervous
Sweaty
Shaking
Heartbeat fast
Stomach pain
That’s all I can tell.
If you have this problem just like me your not alone.
I know you aren’t supposed to self-diagnose, but I’m pretty much 100% sure I have fairly severe anxiety, and have for my whole life. Thing is, I didn’t come to realize I might actually have a disorder until my mother (who has always helped me through my frequent panic attacks) pointed out to me during a particularly severe one that I definitely have anxiety that is out of my control and that we could look into ways to treat it together. This was during last fall when I had a severe panic attack over having possibly dissapointed one of my teachers by last-minute cancelling a club meeting (which people had convinced me to do). I couldn’t sleep and cried for hours until I physically couldn’t cry, threw up multiple times, and obsessively wrote an apology letter to her (which I gave to her at school the next morning before promptly going to the nurse and begging her to let me go home because I had become physically ill from stress). I decided, however, that I was not going to seek medication or therapy because I don’t want my parents to have to pay for something that might not even help (and I feel like I might seem like I’m trying to become the center of attention or something). But the biggest reason I’m afraid is because I’m scared of changing. My anxiety feels like a part of my core being and personality. Even though I feel miserable sometimes, I’m afraid of becoming different, or less empathetic, or less *me*. But I’m starting to reevaluate. Maybe I need to try anyway, so that I can learn how to control my anxiety without making it completely go away.
I don’t really know why I’m writing this comment. Maybe because I want to express my frustration and I want people to empathize with me and hear my inner feelings, but I can’t do that in real life because people will think I’m just trying to get attention. I guess the truth is, I secretly want attention. Not all the attention, but just. Acknowledgement and acceptance and for me to have people who understand that when I go cry in the bathroom over something trivial or small, it’s not their fault; it’s just my brain chemicals overreacting and they will calm down after I go have a bit of alone time. Well, there you have it internet. My anxiety problems. Feels good to put it out there for people to see, even if I’m never sure anyone actually reads it. Just knowing it’s there.
How do you deal with the things like NEEDING to be alone but then when you’re alone you want to cry
Needing to distract yourself from your anxiety and feeling empty
Not being able to sleep
:,)
This is the worst presentation ever if your mother tongue is not English…
I’m at the point where I’d rather be entirely dependent on benzos than constantly missing work and going to the hospital with palpitations three times a month.
Your suggestions might help with mild nervousness, but if you felt even 10% of what I feel every day you’d be giving up hope just like I am.
I get nervous when being watched by a big crowd while I play basketball
i feel that my leading skill were awful because the first time i’m leading a group of people, i feel like i’m not listening much and that i’ve become a bad leader. now that i know every ‘first time’ is most likely to be the worst part, i think i might be able to forgive myself and learn from it. yeah, i think i could move on.
I use the 4-7-8 breathing technique. It only takes about a minute and calms me down right away and is breathing you can do standing and anywhere anytime so really nice when you are in line before the start.
I usually can’t sleep before a race (whether running or cycling) and I can’t find a solution yet… in my first half marathon, I was only able to sleep, if you can call it that, for 20 minutes…
I totalled up all of the miles that I had run and ridden in preparation for the race to remind myself that the distance I had left was way less than the work that I already put in.
i use the “meth and masturbating” nerves hack… sorry, couldn’t help myself…
These are better then my method of pretending Im not nervous while it eats me up inside.
I completed my first Olympuc Tri this weekend. It went better than I hoped and the reason was I followed everything you just talked about. Made a list, checked it twice (ok three or four times) drove to the venue early so I could slowly and quietly organise my kit and warm up. I also had a race plan to make sure my pacing (via heart rate) wad right. This all let me enjoy the whole experience so much. Thanks GTN.
i have real problems wth eye contact it all ways make me feel weard i feel so bad
I wondered why is it hard for me to even say a simple hi when it comes to meeting someone and when I wanted to order my food.
When somebody talks to me I don’t even know I say nothing
It doesn’t matter if I’m an introvert but surely I have social anxiety too. People tends to embarrassed me like shipping me with a guy and I would blush after that. I know that it wasn’t because I like him, but it because I was so nervous. They wouldn’t understand either way.
It scares me when everybody asked me “can we hear your thoughts or opinion?”
Haven’t U seen he news report where the girl died from running the 400
I am also socially anxious…
The only solution to this problem I think is try to speak people and take different task in day to day life
Your subconscious will automatically fit (adapt) and next time you don’t need to be very much conscious of yourself or task you are doing(with people around).your will automatically do the task right because your body has fitted to different tasks you practise.
I’m meeting a friend I haven’t seen in ages and my heart is racing, I’m sweating, crying and overthinking. I really really don’t want to go but I feel like I have to so I don’t look like a weirdo:(. I just feel I’m going to be so akward
did fine in my first 4 hurdles in the race got super nervous for the 5th hurdle and i kicked it down and kicked down all other 3 without falling and got a disqualification
Amazing video. You will make a difference!! Can We be Friends?:3
i can’t watch this, i want an advise to cope with anxiety, but the way she explain makes me uncomfortable
i keep doubting myself, “what if you’re just subconsciously faking it?” “this is stupid, stop overthinking things.”, it’s making it hard to think that maybe i do have anxiety.
“I recommend this guide:

Sorry time: I was the anchor leg of the team 4×400 we were in first and the team as a whole (all the events) was about to win regionals. HOWEVER, we were down two points so all we had to do was win/ beat that team ahead of us. But no. I trip and drop the baton and my whole team loses region plus we get beat by other teams and don’t qualify for state. THAT IS THE WORSE THAT CAN HAPPEN. Awww U got a shit time? NO ONE CARES
im watching this video everyday c0z my teacher told us that we have to present a speech in front of the whole school individually (i wanna quit school)
Hey man im 14 and my teacher chose me to do 100m in the next two days and i have had no practice but my time 13 seconds. I am nervous in front of evreyone when i go to race and i feel like i cant do it but the whole year is counting on me plz help.
I sometimes feel weak for having social anxiety, I feel like no one understands and just dismisses me so I can never talk about it without feeling guilty
I struggle to go in any marriage or any family party.. Especially taking to my siblings…..
People say get the worried out of your head but you can’t its always there I have anxiety and its not nice
I’ve been suffering from GAD and I’d like to say to all my fellow sufferers that the issues you are afraid of today will turn out great for you tomorrow. Stop being pussies and live happy. I’m sorry please dont hurt me.
Once I realized that social anxiety is narcissistic, I then was able to manage it every time I had it. Its tough to admit, because i know youre thinking “im not a narcisist!”..but hear me out. Everytime you have social anxiety its because you are making it about YOU. Say someone invites you to their birthday party. You start getting the sweaty palma the hours before you’re meant to go. Thoughts of finding an excuse to cancel rush through your head. Just stop and think, “hey (insert your own name), this is not about ME. This is not MY birthday”. Realize that people have invited you as they value your company, otherwise they wouldn’t have bothered. So make it about THEM! In a meaningful way, make it about them! So, as you’re having those negative scenarios and thoughts, stop and say to yourself, “its not about ME!”. Then make it about them so why not send the bday boy/girl a text saying “hey, look forward to the party later shall i bring anything? Do you have all you need?” And you will see the result. Make it about them! Stop making it about you, be grateful you have people that want your company, and then switch things and make it about THEM! Best of luck everybody x
Im going to my best friend‘s party and she’s the only one I know and I’ve not seen her for years… I’m freaking out
In the upcoming months I will be at university and I don’t know how I’m gonna deal with my f*cking anxiety
I have learned… Many people will see something cool or beautiful about you (that you may overlook-it can be as “simple” as healthy hair) and try to dim your joy/light by trying to make you feel like you don’t belong…because they feel like whenever someone with that trait they lost/wish they had comes around, they’re no longer relevant or visible. It’s not too late to shine again…or for the 1st time.
If you’re feeling panic and anxiety ——> https://youtu.be/ojk9SWIM7ww
The Worst Part Of Anxiety Is Feeling Unloved, Unimportant, And Unappreciated. That’s how anxiety makes you feel. Like you’re a bother. A waste of time. A nuisance.
These didn’t work the only to solve my anxiety is death
Kind of ironic that I can do class presentations just fine and even get complimented on my ability to speak, but in literally any other social situation I’m a nervous mess. I always get this feeling that I’m somehow being rude when ordering something at a restaurant for example and wish I could just be in the background and have no one talk or look at me at social events in fear i’ll say/do something stupid. Sports in school were my nightmare and I even went as far as to take gym class over the summer so I could complete my required graduation credit in advance and avoid another year of being teased. I do wish to change this learned behavior
Great video content! Apologies for chiming in, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you heard the talk about Franaar Over Anxiety Formula (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now)? It is an awesome one of a kind product for getting rid of anxiety minus the headache. Ive heard some interesting things about it and my best friend Jordan after a lifetime of fighting got great results with it.
Ok so this is my last elementary track meet (I’m a 5th grade) so our things are a bit different but since I’m the fastest girl in my class so I have to run the 600 meter (1 lap and a half lap) and I’m nervous for that I’m doing 60 meter high hurtles so nervous for that 800 relay pretty confident on that and the 100 meter dash ( the coach normally puts the slow kids in the dash but one is gonna be absent so I have to fill it in for her) and really confident on that wish me luck
When I get a anxiety attack I usually cant think of anything apart from that so these are not gonna be helpfulness
Did anyone succeed in getting rid of their social anxiety?! I need your advices! HELP ME PLEASE my life is falling apart and my social anxiety is getting worse!
Prayer & meditation may help to a positive track… “Thou art My lamp and My light is in thee. Get thou from it thy radiance and seek none other than Me. For I have created thee rich and have bountifully shed My favor upon thee.” Baha’u’llah, Baha’i Faith
I dont think people talk about this as much so I’m just going to state it now. Usually people talk about having GAD or panic attacks when something in the room triggers the panic and you may not even know it. It sucks yes I have that problem too, but the problem I have most with this is when my anxiety and panic is triggered by an internal feeling, like my shoulders start to hurt or I feel a sudden pressure on my chest so I think I may have a heart attack. My question is, how do you cope with that? It’s hard for me not knowing if these sudden pains are just symptoms of my GAD or panic attacks that I have. I even went to the hospital the first time I had a panic attack and checked in with my doctor and they said I was fine but I feel as if they didn’t check me good enough. I’m scared not knowing if my body pains or aches are that of a bigger problem and that causes me to worry and feel anxious every day and throughout the day.
Pets are a great solution to calm down your anxiety
Too bad I’m allergic to animals ;-;
I’m scared to look in someones face/eyes. My heart starts racing.
I have a run tomorrow for 100m and I’m so nervous now and idk what to do help meee
I don’t want to go out even for buying bread or something, I feel like people will judge me because of my physical appearance and they do it with their weird looks and thier whisperings dunno how to overcome it and this video doesn’t help me:(
I hate getting complimented because I don’t know what to say back
Well, I have social anxiety and believe me it is horrible when my mother prefers to go out with my cousin than with me because she is “more sociable”, she doesn’t say it, but she makes it clear with her actions.
If you have anxiety just know it’s ok, I had super bad anxiety my freshman year I was popular I had friends but still I had these bad attacks in the morning before school, this anxiety you feel are demons in your head, you gotta fight those demons and tell yourself your ok and you can do this, a cold shower helps a lot and also splash cold water on your face when you feel anxious, take deep breaths, it took me a few weeks Ik it won’t fix right away but you guys can do this you gotta fight your demons and show them your ok and they will never return.
Im scared to go outside, because im afraid that people will judge me. I’ve been trying to avoid people from school. my “friends” barely contacts me anyway. It makes me feel so empty, but if I had to talk to them it wouldn’t really help. I’ve been even skipping school before it got closed. I was supposed to have two presentations a long time ago. I really am a disappointment. no one around me understands. but when I read the comment, I relate so much. stay safe btw!
Someone text me and said, he like to know more about me. I felt like my heart was going to explode and my hands started to shake, and I couldn’t breath, and the funny thing is I was too scared. I just scared he would find out about my secret, my past and how stupid I am and my embarrassing moments. It’s just soo freaking tired to feel like that everytime someone try to make a move. I want someone too but I just can’t.. so, yeah, I don’t have anxiety disorder…
good nervousness releases Adrenalin but if you get a bad nervousness, like i do, you can’t think straight, stay still or speak properly. and if i know i’ve got no competition, i’m not nervous at all
I’m crying.. I’ve had really bad social anxiety my whole life and tried everything. It’s never gotten better and I’m convinced it won’t at this point
I imagined if I didn’t have social anxiety, I can do whatever I wanted to do without feeling anxious or awkward around people. I know theres no cure on this and I have no choice but to deal with it through the rest of my life
GAD can take over if you do not acknowledge it. Do not let it ruin your life too!?!
I am very sad for looking this video……Fuck I am not that boy
Half is from the drugs doctor’s give you! It’s not a disorder! Disorder is what they call it so they can drug you!
Whenever you have anxiety, close your eyes and concentrate on you breath. Take deep breaths and avoid thinking anything. That’s the best thing to do
Today I went to a store and got a few books and the guy told me I could get 2 free books because of a deal and I panicked and said no and ahhhhh I feel so shit for wasting money
I don’t have anxiety disorder but I feel at a time of my life I was on my way to that. Life was freaking hard that time and I was anxious all the time. Every five min I would start thinking about my problem and start worrying about that. Than I started to take deep breath and my hand would Start getting sweaty. I wasn’t able to concentrate. But than I went on vacation away from the source that was causing me anxiety. I was with my sister and she noticed I was always worried. She talked to me and I work on her advice and since I was away from problem I could take time to think. Thank god that worked out for me and I was feeling great after coming back. When I worry to much I do sometime feel suffocating, like something is releasing in my body, my heart start beating fast, I can’t concentrate, feeling anxious, feeling fear, I take deep breath and feel like there is a rock in my chest but this only happen sometime now when I overthink too much or worry too much but I felt like that for over a month like this that time.
Thanks for this vid. I’ll have these 5 steps in my mind and I’ll work on it!
when I was younger I use to say to myself “I will never have depression or anxiety” and now I look back and it makes me sad to think how happy I was back then I wasn’t afraid to go out in public I was shy but I was still happy and could do simple things like I used to walk my dogs around the block completely alone but I could never do that now without panicking.
My brain before a race “I’m not nervous, I’m not nervous, I’m not nervous* passes out at the finish line because I’m so nervous*
i did like this one i have social anxiety and i cant talk to others i have been at my school for a year now my 3 school and i have no friends there but its cus i feel mute when other kids talk to me its a good school we have our own class room its like a bedroom but its yuor class room and i really wanna talk to the ppl in the schools gamein gteam but i feel mute when im in there i only talk to my teachers i will try to uce some of the things and try to push myself slowly i also have a crush on one on the gameing team i really wanna try to talk to him idk if hes gfonna like me but at least a friend
I’m actually scared of hearing that “wooow you finally Start speaking”!
Why other people whit social anxiety exist only in internet and not in real life??
I can’t even read in class that’s how much I have it any tips for me
I haven’t go out in two months because I feel like everywhere u go no one wants me there and everyone judges me
So I just have someone I know who gone mad and the minute after I knew that person came through that, anxiety made it’s first greeting to me. I feared of going crazy as well due to insomnia but woke up after a long sleep feeling anxiety again. I thought it was solved because I had a rest… But my mind couldn’t stop. Now I hate nighttime and the fact that I can’t go out easily because of the pandemic. Everytime I am left alone the idea of that person’s situation keeps playing on and on in my mind and I have the greatest fear ever. Someone I know called me emotional and empathetic, and that’s true but it doesn’t say anything at all. Mine isn’t about worrying around the big crowd, it’s about somebody’s life that I shouldn’t be getting attached about because it’s really not me. No one would thought someone as carefree as me would be worrying about stuff like that. Now I honestly don’t know what to do
FUCK SOCIAL ANXIETY
I CANT EVEN TALK TO PEOPLE THAT I WANT TO
WHYYYYY OH WHY
I managed to get away with both of my English presentations by only doing it in front of the teacher
God dang it, why does Anxiety even exist, I just want a normal fun life, and not think that people talk crap about me behind my back, I’ve lost many friends because I think too much into it and stop talking to them, now Its hard to even to find friends, I always think people are calling me ugly, stupid, disgusting, and other things, Sometimes I wish to just not leave my room, To me, Video Games is the only place for me to not think that, I always have fun playing them, even if Im playing alone, I dont even know why Im writing this, no one will read it or care
I have such bad social anxiety that I’m practically mute in school and the only two friends i have are there because i befriended them back in like first grade and I’m going to be a freshmen soon (i feel like at least one of them is just my friend out of pity tbh) but I’m trying so hard to fix it yet everytime i even try to open my mouth to speak i feel like I’m choking
I have spent months investigating reducing panic attacks at home and discovered a great resource at Trevs Panic Fixer (look it up on google)
There are several things to try
Work out why you suffer from shyness the first step in solving a problem is to understand why it is there.
Be at ease with yourself this makes it easier when you meet others.
Challenge youself you will become more confident by taking action especially by doing activities which stretch your boundaries.
I’m a track manager and I have to go, I have no idea what I’m doing because it’s my first time going to a track meet. It’s tomorrow, and I’m scared asf because it’s going on for 12 hours.
I have a meet today. I feel like I trained my best but I have only done hurdles one time and was put into a race. I am very nervous
Winner of a video, I have been researching “how to overcome social anxiety disorder now” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of Telaavar Anxious Amanita (do a google search )?
It is an awesome one of a kind product for removing the root cause of social anxiety minus the hard work. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my close friend Aubrey got great success with it.
why would you make a whole video of info that ANYONE CAN JUST LOOK UP ON GOOGLE AND BECOME INFORMED OF IN TEN SECONDS
I think anything that requires me to go out of my house gives me anxiety. I always feel so rushed and anxious and just uncomfortable just BUYING something! I almost never go to the art store because I’m always scared that I have to look like I know what I’m doing and I have to be confidant when speaking and even my movements and what I choose to look at or touch, even the way I walk or hold my bag… I even talk to nothing like I’m talking to myself about how nice having this or that would be to make it seem like I’m a professional ( yeah right I’m 15 ) and I know what I’m doing… I hate to look like I’m lost or I don’t know what to do and I just can’t think anything else than actually getting what I need and looking like a normal person when I do…
And this is just about going to buy things…
It’s so bad that at the school cafeteria, I somehow never choose what I ACTUALLY want to eat ( especially with desserts ) because I hesitate in my mind but I NEED to look like a normal student so I just choose the first thing I see as if I have a very specific time limit ( that is the average time the rest of the students took to choose their lunch ) and I always end up with something I didn’t want on my plate…
I experience this kind of thing everywhere, at any time, provided I’m not at home or in presence of someone I don’t know that well.
I’m sure I have social anxiety. I have a lot of the symptoms, I’m too scared to be myself even with my family because I’m scared that people will judge me. I’m also so scared to talk to people. For example, Christmas shopping. I always go with my sister. Once, she asked me to pay. I was so scared I started sweating and broke down into tears. I also have this thing called ‘Shy Bladder Syndrome,’ where I physically can’t go to the toilet when other people are around because I’m scared that they will judge me. The problem is, I want help for it. I’m a teenager, so I live with my parents (and they think I’m just shy and will grow out of it). I wanna get help without them knowing, but it’s impossible. I can’t tell them because they will not believe me. I’ve told them all of my symptoms, and how I can’t sleep well.
It took me about two years of therapy to get rid (for the most part anyway) of social anxiety. I kept exposing myself to situations that kept me anxious, like small talk with neighbors in elevator and other small things. Now whenever there is a social situation that makes me anxious and I’d rather avoid I try to be excited about it and reframe it as a new challenge and an opportunity for more exposure.
But I don’t want to change, everything always goes horribly.
I have social anxiety and i get panic attacks to often.
Im not alowed to seek help, sadly.
I went to the store after school the other day with $10 bucks in my pocket. I wanted to buy a bag of chips that was $2 and i ended up not buying it because i was so afraid that the cashier would tell me i didnt have enough money:( thinking back i think its dumb, but in the moment i really believed it would happen
when i get these little “anxiety ticks” i ask myself: what am i scared of? what is making me anxious? ect. the feeling then usually goes away when i can’t think of an answer, or it goes away a little, but not all the way. hope this helps someone:).
I having a hard time at a salon thanks to being nervous & sweating. All the talkative hairstylist scare me sometimes.
What do you do when your body begins to feel like it is shutting down because your muscles become so tense that you can’t even open your hands or breathe properly? When you think that you’re dying it is really hard to “get your brain under control”.
I have a feeling that this person has never had a panic attack…..one day I’m in a car and I have a panic attack out of nowhere and I had no idea what it was. I seriously thought I was dying. It was horrifying.
I used to have social anxiety, I got rid of it but it’s just I can’t really make a conversation last
I don’t know about the first solution, where she told making bad decisions may help cope with anxiety. Well, i have tried that one and after the negative outcome of bad decision i would blame myself so badly and therefore it deepens my anxiety even more…
wish i was dead, its not livable. the older i get the worse it gets. im 22 now and cant even wake up without my anxiety making me physically sick. i really wish more doctors performed assisted suicide, my life is fine, i dont know why i have to feel this way
How do i sleep i cant sleep until i physically cant stay up longer
Do any of y’all know how to bring this up to your parents, so you can get help?
I was diagnosed with GAD 2 years ago and it comes from no where. It just happens. All of a sudden for no reason my stomach is like a washing machine. Done CBT etc. No change. Hate it
Here’s some tips for how to overcome fear of driving
1) Take control of your life.
2) Learn about the power of your mind.
3) Walk in the path of people who have already overcome the fear.
I got these tips from the Roys Quick Fix (google it if you’re interested) definately the best info on success i’ve seen.
Turning my trust to Jesus Christ got rid of my porn and video game addictions. This stuff is embarrassing for me but it is the truth. I have nothing to gain from admitting it. He saved my marriage and I place my trust on him.
Here to remind everyone that anxiety disorders aren’t permanent! I know it seems impossible, but you can beat it. It may take you weeks, months or years, but one day you will be free of it.
When I suffered from anxiety, it was the lowest point of my life. I thought, how can this possibly get better? Will I ever have my life back? I made a New Year’s Resolution that year to have more confidence, thinking that even if it was only a little that would still count.
Not even six months later, life has completely changed. Completely. Not only am I more confident, I’m more confident than I have ever been.
It’s impossible to know what life has in store for you. But I do know this stay strong, because that strength will pay off. You will beat this disorder. Just keep pushing through, because let me tell you now, the rewards are worth it. You can do this.
I had a interview today and i blow it cause my words cracked i started shacking i was literally about to freak the fuck out for no real reason. I almost ran out the room and said fuck this job..i have no much anxiety people look at me in public like im crazy i can’t look people in their eyes. If i didn’t have a child ill check myself into a hospital. It all started after i had my baby. I can’t talk to anyone about it i just wanna break down and cry. I thought about killing myself today i can’t take it anymore. I been trying to control it im lossing myself and who i am
I definitely have stuff like this but I’m terrified to tell anybody! My parents think I’m a liar and a failure! They never say positive stuff instead they always remind me when I make mistakes and if I do something on non purpose they think I did it on purpose which lets them think I’m a complete psychopath! Then they wonder why is my self esteem so low, why don’t I believe in myself when they’re the ones causing it! And I’ve been skipping school and practices to avoid public places and to avoid for people to make fun of me when I fail. They could never understand how I feel and even if I tried explaining them their response would be like: “we’ve promised you so much stuff if you succeeded that’s enough to cheer you” well I feel like them telling me their proud of me or telling me I’m going to make it instead of “ you’ll never achieve anything” “ why aren’t you. Like your sister” “ we didn’t have to do stuff like this with your sister” I’m going to be so happy to tell my school counselor about this and finally see if I get diagnosed with anxiety and then, THEN THEY WILL BELIEVE ME
Im running a 4 by 800 relay and the second 200 in an smr tomorrow
I tell myself to nut up or shut up then throw myself at what I’m anxious about. Its not the best way but it works for me
I feel like social media gives me anxiety, but it is the only way for me to stay connected, especially during this time
Anyone who advises “think happy thoughts” in relation to how to deal with GAD doesn’t have the first clue on what they’re talking about. Advice like this can actually make the condition WORSE. Please ignore this useless video.
The worst time dealing with GAD is actually now while being in the quarantine..
I have a track meet tomorrow and I’m running the 100m and 200m and I don’t think I’m improving but this video helped me a lot. Thank you!
I am currently trying to get a Facebook group started with the intention of it being a community based help line for anyone dealing with things like anxiety and depression to addiction and grief. We will have a live chat line for anyone to directly speak with a real human 24/7. Until I get people and enough moderators to help it may not be immediate but will be a prompt response. We Will also be posting current material in the form of videos and articles from leading professionals in those fielda from around the world! Come help us get by with a little help from our friends!

I have had severe anxiety for years and all the online posts ever say is JUST BREATHE. Dear god they make it sound so damn easy.
I know EXACTLY why you mean! Yes! That helps a lot, lots of people are nervous before a race! And besides they’re human:) and what’s the worse that can happen?
$FredRico88 If you have cash app and would like to help with my anxiety, please donate any amount you like to $FredRico88, your help is greatly appreciated and really goes to someone trying to cope.Thank you and God Bless!
Meds, psychotherapy, and understanding where your anxiety originated (toxic relationship, traumatic childhood, etc) are also very helpful.
Appreciate Video clip! Excuse me for the intrusion, I would love your initial thoughts. Have you heard the talk about Lammywalness Erase Depression Guide (do a google search)? It is an awesome one off guide for beating depression fast minus the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my friend got excellent results with it.
I have recently had a fear that me or someone I’m close to will die and it makes me panic
This is glorious, I have been researching “get over depression without medication” for a while now, and I think this has helped. You ever tried Hanincoln Nanlivia Framework (should be on google have a look )? Ive heard some super things about it and my colleague got great success with it.
I dislike how vague people are with coping with anxiety. Especially the deep breathing, it’s so easy to mess this up and it’s something that requires practice to be effective in alot of people. It can actually have a negative effect as people will try these techniques then get angry and even more anxious when it hasn’t worked for them.
I used the pack approach today in a half and it really helped mentally.
I have a 3 miles race on Saturday and its going to be 50 schools or maybe more
I woke up feeling anxious depressed & having suicidal thoughts

I’ve had around 4 days of anxiety right now, dealing with people trying to sort my pension. All out of my control. I have pains in my shoulders, head arms, hands and feet because of it and breathing issues etc. I DON’T KNOW HOW TO COPE WITH IT AND GET IT SORTED.
the best results that i’ve ever had was with Kevs Control Plan (just google it) without a doubt thebest method that I’ve tried.
Why put pressure on yourself to be perfect when the people around you do that enough:D

So grateful it exists in 2020.”
It’s 11.40 pm right now and i haven’t got out of my bed since morning, i couldn’t concentrate on my online classes and fell asleep, my mom was yelling at me for skipping my class and sleeping all day, i feel like I’m stuck, I’m just piling everything up on my head, i feel horrible, and negative, i really need help
I could have made this video. It’s almost offensive how patronising it is. Like anyone here doesn’t know getting more sleep will help them… smh
coffee is ruining everybody! stop drinking coffee!energy drinks are bad! fast food is bad!
I am in a very bad place right now and this brought tears to my eyes several times. I can’t hold down a job because my anxiety prevents me from doing a lot of things even though I’m a talented machinist and mechanic I often turn to either drugs, procrastination, or self hatred. This will help a lot of ppl understand what it’s like to have anxiety and what it’s like to have a disorder. I am at a 10 and am willing to do anything to get rid of this.
Reading all of these comments makes me happy that I’m not alone in this but I really wish that I have a friend with social anxiety just like me so that we can understand each other and help each other.hopefully we would overcome social anxiety together but I guess you are my friends now
Appreciate Video! Excuse me for butting in, I would love your opinion. Have you ever tried Proutklarton Being Quiet Plan (erm, check it on google should be there)?
It is a good exclusive guide for getting rid of anxiety and panic attacks fast without the normal expense. Ive heard some awesome things about it and my mate got excellent results with it.
I have an race on sports day,it is on i march.I am sooo nervous.hope I win!
Sometimes I listen to music when I’m out so 1) people won’t talk to me
2) I have something to focus on than other people
3) it just calms me down
Very beautifully put! Kudos to whoever made this video. I read a similar blog which helped me understand that it is so simple to get help and there is nothing to be worried about. https://www.richpsych.com/blogs/8-ways-to-cope-with-anxiety/ODUyNjZN/
Do check this out!
I have not gone out at all since quarantine started. In fact, I have hardly gone out of my room. Recently I have been having health issues and that triggered severe anxiety and panic attacks. Just yesterday someone in my family has gotten injured and required a brain surgery, which made my anxiety worse. I feel like it is difficult to take care of my family while also trying to take care of myself as well. I started seeing a therapist today and I noticed that it helped a lot. I am still getting severe panic attacks and anxiety, but I feel like therapy will really help me cope with everything that is going on. I think it is very beneficial to be able to talk to other people who struggle with the same issues because they understand what those feelings are and they are able to provide tips for dealing with that anxiety. Please make sure you talk to someone if you are not feeling okay mentally. Mental health is very important and should never be brushed aside. Please stay safe everyone and remember there is always someone who will hear you out.
The feeling as if people are judging you…. I can offer some insight, I felt this way for over a year (its eased with the lock down), I felt as if I wasn’t normal, like every one knew something and I didn’t, like I was (forgive my use of the word, it best fits how I felt) retarded in some way. This increased the anxiety I felt in social situations and haunted me. I felt so alienated and no one seemed to be able to convince me otherwise. Please, if you’re feeling like this, reach out and get some help. I’m in the process of it myself. Also thank you psych2go for all of your amazing content, it helps a lot of people (myself included)!
I have panic attacks daily, and I worry about stupid things that don’t need to be worried about. I’ll say something, and even if it’s fine, I become really anxious I said something wrong
I’ve been trying to find a video like this for a while
Thankyou
Dude it’s like I don’t even care if people laugh at me, make fun of me etc. I just can’t fucking function and the thought of going to somebody’s house makes me wanna faint
Anyone else get scared hearing the words “school is in a few days”?
Sometimes I think back to moments where I did something embarrassing, where I thought “I was so weird in that moment, wasn’t I?”, I misspelled things or just thought “They really must think I’m dumb, weird or so rude”. I know that all those things happened in the past but I still have to think about them randomly sometimes, you can say that these moments and memories burnt into my head, I can’t just forget these embarrassing moments and they bother me so much. I avoid crowded places and even full voice chats on Discord, if I invite friends over to my house then it’s only like two or three people and they’re one of my closest friends I can trust. I don’t like to say something during school classes because I’m just too afraid to make mistakes which makes me think “They’re all probably laughing at me right now, they aren’t showing it but I just know they’re laughing at me” When I think about it, it sounds kinda silly and I know that’s probably not true but I can’t help it.
I have homework, school, chores, and anxiety and panic attacks, plus insomnia. If I could get anywhere near 8 hours trust me I would be.
Alot of thing’s make me have anxiety I can’t control it sadly:(
It’s very easily curable disease I fired it with my will.Mind will play only but what u want to accept it’s your choice.Is easily curable disease..just self awareness…I also faced SAD and other GAD problem.But now I am confident…I don’t fear people..k don’t think what other people will think about me..I was sufferer once upon time but now I am confident, can take any risk..and choice….I am more confident than what I am before.
Do you know how to stop overthinking, especially the night before the race. I do 100m sprints and have a big race tomorrow.
every 3rd thought of mine is negative projection. I argue in my head about things that happened 40 years ago and things that havent happened yet. Things never happen the way i project them yet i still do. I try not to but it happens automatically. Im full of anger conceit fear. i keep to myself as much as possible. Im alone with other people around. When i was very young id have overwhelming feelings of doom & gloom, crying at the edge of my brothers bead not being able to explain whats wrong…. i fucking hate it
Please talk slowly..i already have difficulty in thinking or concentrating…i need to get every single word you’ve said.
Google told me yesterday, social anxiety is totally curable, i hope i will get over this shit and live my real life by being the real real me….
When I was in 6th grade our school took us to an excursion to the amusement park.The whole time I was fine.Then I and my friends checked out our tickets to ride the roller coaster.at that time the line was small and it was not crowded…We even had our tickets in hand,waiting for our turn.In less than a minute the space got super crowded and everyone was pushing one another to get to the ride first.All my friends successfully got to ride on the coaster but I…… couldn’t breathe,I was feeling like I would die if I stay another second in the crowd…I started crying and was begging to let me go back.some of my teachers were behind the crowd waiting for their turn for ride.When they saw me,I was all dizzy,breathless and crying.They started asking me if I was okay or if I need help but I couldn’t voice any words…
That was my first time experiencing this anxiety attack and till to this day,I avoid crowds and public spaces as much as I can…And I still have regrets not riding the roller coaster and coming back with my checked ticket. =)
If you are suffering from coervid er19 the best thing to do is go into your local supermarket without a mask and shout Help me Help me i have got the bug.The supermarket will empty before you could shout Jack Robinson
During this whole pandemic my anxiety has been out of this world.. I was diagnosed with Generalized anxiety disorder, and since this whole uncertainty / pandemic stuff happened.. my depersonalization & derealization has been nonstop. That feeling of being unreal is just so fun. Anyways, you’re not alone if you’re feeling overwhelmed!
My friends will come to me in a few hours and I’m so anxious about that they won’t have a good time and that it’s going to be boring… I really want to write them that they can not come but I try to resist I know it’s so stupid being afraid of all these things but I can’t do anything against that it’s just terrible
I’ve been bullied in school, so that developed my aniexity… I don’t know how to heal because I am too scared to face my aniexity…
Shrooms. There. That’s how u cope wit anxiety. End of story.
I get anxiety whenever I’m asked a question I feel embarrassed when a teacher or instructor makes me speak even though I’m not a person who doesn’t talk much still I’m anxious of trying explain what I learn but I like to keep things at me in my own way without criticism
Just wonderful, been searching for “how to get rid of clinical depression naturally” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of Hanincoln Nanlivia Framework (should be on google have a look )? Ive heard some decent things about it and my co-worker got excellent results with it.
This was on my recommended, should I be worried or thankful?
There are some proven natural remedies which can prove very effective always worth trying.

I’ve been struggling with my anxiety over the last few days. Having panic attacks on and off.
I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder and it quickly moved into Panic Disorder. I was on Xanax for about 3 weeks before I decided to stop taking it because, while it made me feel better, it caused all kinds of other side effects that were hard to cope with. Besides the fact that Xanax has horrible withdraws.
I was okay for a few years and now it has made a comeback and I’m afraid I might have to go back on medication.
Help! I try grounding techniques, I go for walks and try to move around so I have something to focus on. Sometimes it gets so bad that I think my body is going to shut down.
Had it today its horrible, thought people was staring at me more when it was happening then I just was breathing deeper and just looked away. Horrible feeling
I have a 400m and 1500m tomorrow. The next day, discus, 800m, high jump, and 4x400m. Oh boy!
Edit: broke my own high school record in the 800m!
I had a panic attack today at work and I felt like I was going crazy. God brought me here
