The Truth About Anxiety

Anxiety forces itself to be your best friend, though it knows you think of it as your worst enemy; it just doesn’t care.

Many people with Anxiety Disorder have symptoms such as being in a bad mood for no reason, feeling a sudden uneasiness, finding it hard to breathe, crying for no apparent reason, social anxiousness, mood swings, and many more.

The thing most people don’t understand about anxiety is that it isn’t just being scared or nervous. Sometimes it’s you finding yourself being abnormally quiet, or weirdly over-talkative. Maybe it’s an angry outburst that even you don’t know the reason behind. What most people tend to think is that people who have anxiety are over-reacters or faking it.

But the truth is, people dealing with it truly are suffering. 

Imagine this: Your mind goes into a million directions at once that not even the person themselves can control or slow down. Everything goes too fast all of a sudden and things and people swoosh past you in a blur and then crash. 

That person has just fainted from an anxiety attack.

This is real life, and for many people. The people who talk too much or the people who are too quiet might be the worst sufferers, and no one would ever know. Many suffer by themselves in silence or until they can get by themselves so they can finally just release all their anxiousness.

If you or someone you know is suffering from anxiety, you are not alone. There are millions of sufferers going through what you are going through right this very second. Reach out, engage, find what helps you. You can get through this. There are so many options to relieve this scary time, you just have to be willing and ready. 🙂
