I have self diagnosed myself for anxiety. I believe I have very bad anxiety. I have symptoms such as excessive worry, feeling scared, insomnia, nausea, palpitations, poor concentration, trembling, panic attacks, fear of traffic, fear of dying, fear of crowds, fear of almost everything...... and the list goes on...
I'm just 17 years of age and my parents don't pay that much of attention to me to notice my anxiety.
I've felt this way for as long as I can remember. Sometimes I feel like I was born with anxiety...
Point is... I want help. I want help so bad and any way possible. whether it be medication, therapy, etc
BUT!! I fear telling others. I fear telling my parents, a doctor, a teacher, or anyone. So far I have told my boyfriend. No one else. Cause I fear their reaction. I worry that no one will care or believe me.
Funny how my anxiety makes me scared to face my anxiety. Am I the only one? I feel alone here.
What do I do?
