I am going to fill you in on a little secret that not many people know; I suffer from pretty severe anxiety.
Now to me it’s pretty severe because at one point I needed to go to my doctor to get a prescription just so I wouldn’t stress and freak out over everything. When I say everything I mean everything. The most trivial things to most would send me into a total tailspin like being a few minutes late for work or what we were having for dinner. I am not kidding when I tell you that is how bad I was and I feel like I am better now but I still have anxiety that is hard to control sometimes.
I know I am not alone and I am glad to see there are places people can go for mental health treatment like the PCH Treatment Center. I feel like I am pretty lucky because there are people who suffer from bi polar disease and extreme depression. Not saying having anxiety is a walk in the park but I feel pretty lucky because it could be a lot worse. Thankfully I am not depressed and I am of pretty sound mind but like I mentioned I get anxiety pretty often over most things. Some things are easier to calm down from than others but I feel like I have gotten better over the years. Not 100% but better to the point where I am currently not on any medication. Some days are bad and I could really use medication but I am trying to manage myself without the use of medication.
Like I said some days are better than others but I am doing everything I can to live my life as normal as I possibly can.
