I've been struggling with anxiety (among other things) for the past 4-5 years. I've had anxiety my whole life, but it's been manageable. I had my first panic attack about 4-5 years ago and it's been a huge struggle since.

I've been in therapy and on meds for about 3-4 years. My current T is great and my Pdoc is great, but I still am facing overwhelming anxiety and feel like I'm holding onto the end of my rope.

I don't know how much more of it I can take. When am I going to have permanent relief from anxiety? It impacts me every single day and is so debilitating that I just want to give up.

I think to anyone who hasn't experienced anxiety, that it probably seems like I'm exaggerating things, but it is so difficult to live with.
