This is my first time posting here.

I am anxious all the time. It is horrible. I have started trying to meditate a few times a week, and I go to acupuncture weekly because I finally got so sick of feeling this way that I knew it was time to start making changes. But I have had anxiety since I was 7 years old, so for 29 years. It is going to take a long time for these changes to take effect. I am hopeful but also very stressed out.

Being anxious every second of every day is unbearable. I have survived so much, this is the one thing that sometimes I think will send me over the edge completely.

I'm really trying to take control. Its a scary and lonely place to be.
