Hello brokenfriend.

I think I have nontreatable anxiety too. I'm on three anxiety meds and STILL have episodes of severe anxiety. Also I understand about how you feel unsuccessful because of your anxiety. Anxiety disorders are debilitating! It has prevented me from doing certain things too.

I just hate it. I hate anxiety!!!! It sucks we all have to suffer through it!

Also, I hate how no one takes anxiety that seriously! Even pdocs don't (well... depending on who you have. I've had doctors take it seriously, including my current pdoc, but others... not so much).

It just sucks! It's like no one understands!

I agree. I think it's our culture, we are told to stay positive about everything or to just "snap out of it". No wonder there's a mental health crisis in this country and COVID exacerbated it. American culture is indifferent to mental health.

I'm not having much anxiety. Today that's really not my problem. I am kind of sad.

I wish I was sleeping better at night.

I’m having a really good day so far. Yesterday was great. I did group therapy and although it was intense I did the right thing and hung out with my friend afterwards and laughed and had a good time.

Fighting sadness again today, but it has improved. Anxiety isn't really part of my problem at the moment. Something to be grateful for.

Yes, many people struggle with anxiety around transitions. To manage it, try practicing deep breathing or mindfulness techniques before and during transitions. Plan and visualize the upcoming activity to reduce uncertainty. Gradual exposure to transitions and seeking support from a therapist can also be helpful in managing anxiety.
