An estimated 19.1% of U.S. adults had any anxiety disorder in the past year, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. Women and children are particularly susceptible to anxiety disorders as it affects 31.9% of adolescents between 13 and 18 years old.

Its even worst when things are actually going decently in your life, but you wake up everyday with an overwelming felling of lost, and you end up spending 15 or 16 hours a day thinking what Will you do if what ever is your paranóia today happens, even though there is no reason what só ever to make you believe that it Will happen. Its a very very " fun " felling.......

It’s called a mental health day, but very few employers recognize or honor the practice. At least in N America

Ah but it’s because of that activity that our brains evolved an extremely strong stress response. Which is all fine and dandy when the stress is a bear and once you’re out of the situation your brain can slowly decompress, but not so good when stress is your constant state of being… So technically when you’re suffering from the stress of modern life you can blame your ancestors and evolution for it being so excruciating.

I hate this. Because with some mental health issues you are depressed for long periods of time. And all those "positivity only" people will drop you as soon as depression hits once again. But when they are depressed, you are the first person to go to, because you understand...

Usually when this happens to me, I have an impending panic attack. Might take a couple hours, or twenty minutes to kick in, but once it’s there, it’s a doozy. Happened to me tonight, as a matter of fact. So now I’m up on Bored Panda at 2 in the morning, because hey. Self care. :)

I got to work this morning and the coffee machine was making weird noises instead of coffee so I just lay down in the middle of the floor. I can’t handle this kind of stress with the rest of the *gestures to everything*

I HATE people like that! "Oh I need to tell you something but I see you're busy so I just tell you when you're free" B***h, tell me now, or don't say that you need to tell me something later!

Well that makes me feel slightly less alone/freakish. Good post. Unfortunately that doesn’t mean society is any more empathetic to people who suffer like this.
