You’re gonna get seriously tired of yourself and how your mind sometimes works. There may even be points where you roll your eyes at yourself and mutter “really, this again?”
It’s gonna be difficult to explain to people who don’t have it. You can’t just stop worrying, if you could you’d have done it a long time ago.
It can take a long-ass time before you find the right kind of help, whether that’s a therapist or medication or something different.
Screaming works.
You can get irrational, crazy thoughts like “hey why shouldn’t I just jump outta the window right now”. This is not you. This is your anxiety.
You may develop tics.
You can feel physically sick enough to stay in bed. You can throw up, pass out, even develop a fever (!!!) from anxiety. This usually happens around panic attacks.
Oh yeah, you can get those as well.
And most importantly, if you haven’t found the right kind of help yet, please keep looking. There’s someone or something out there that can help you deal with all of this.
