Every one of us has experienced anxiety at some point of our lives. Feeling uneasy or nervous, or worrying about something that may or may not happen in the future, can be a normal response to stress or danger, though if it starts to interfere with daily life, it can become problematic.
People who live with generalized anxiety disorder experience frequent anxiety for long period of time, be it a month or even a year. Anxiety also is the main symptom of panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, phobia-related disorders, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
I wish I wasn't speaking from firsthand experience when I said this is 100% accurate. Also I was irrationally angry all the time and kept snarling at people over nothing.
There are a few things that can help control anxiety, despite the fact that everyone experiences it differently. Therapy, such as cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), which teaches people how to control anxious thoughts and behaviors, is one of the most efficient strategies to lessen anxiety. Antidepressants and anti-anxiety medications, for example, can help manage anxiety symptoms.
Self-care approaches including exercise, mindfulness, and relaxation methods can be beneficial in managing anxiety in addition to treatment and medication. It's critical to give self-care first priority and schedule downtime for rest and renewal. It can also be beneficial to create a strong network of family and friends who can offer sympathy and understanding.

for me it;s more like "why? I'm a piece of s**t that deserves the abuse!"
Another helpful approach for overcoming anxiety is humor. Making light of a problem and laughing at it can help ease tension and give a momentary diversion from nervous sensations and thoughts. In fact, comedy has been proven to improve mental health, including easing anxiety and depressive symptoms.
Though it is important to understand that humor shouldn't take the place of qualified treatment for anxiety problems. Even though it can be useful in the moment, comedy is not a long-term fix and doesn't deal with the underlying reasons for anxiety.
Moreover, humor can be employed in a dismissive or inappropriate manner toward people who are anxious. Making fun of someone's nervousness or making jokes about it can be upsetting and leave the recipient feeling invalidated or devalued.
Despite the fact that comedy can be a helpful coping mechanism for anxiety, it's crucial to use it in a courteous and acceptable manner.

Keep going to copy and share these with my bestie who also struggles with life but even then I’m like “Is he going to think I’m too needy? Complaining too much? He didn’t react to that one….clearly he hates me. Everyone hates me. I give up - going to eat cheese and live in the cupboard”.
I will share my cheese. I like cheese. *pats an empty shelf for you to have a seat*

How many of you cried in the past 24 hours, be honest. If you're up for sharing, why?
*raises hand tiredly* recently discovered that my “close friend” who I supported and stopped multiple times from killing herself, using my emotional capacity to support her, told someone else that she had “no one” and that she was “all alone” just for sympathy. Sucks to know that someone who you wasted so much of your mental health for and who you always supported just dismisses whatever you’ve done for them just to gain sympathy from other people.
