im pretty sure im placing this in the wrong place but ive been off my meds for an anxiety disorder since july and the last couple of weeks ive been freaking. i need someone to tell me its all ok and its going to be fine. why is it that at this stage of my life i have no one who can give me a hug and tell me its ok and that i can trust? is that too much to ask? theres so much crap going on in my life i dont know where to start. which is why im posting this in general. essentially i just desperately need someone to give me a hug and care for me so they can tell me its going to be ok...

so sorry things are going rough for you right now, biiv...but sending you some pc hugs in hopes they help. you mentioned you are feeling so overwhlemed with what's going on in your life right now. do u have a good friend you trust that has a willing ear? many times i am amazed at the warm reception i get when i "dump" about what's been bothering me. friends can be so supportive in that way.
and we care for you here too. rant away if you feel that will help. i will listen and i'm sure others will too.

(((((((((((( biiv )))))))))))))

First off here are some hugs just for you
Have you considered joining a local support group? Support groups are a great place to find others that you can get support from and in return offer support.
It's going to be okay hun.

It is going to be okay. I know things seem really overwhelming right now and that's scary, confusing, stressful. Sometimes when I feel absolutely overwhelmed, I have to really remind myself to break things down, that I probably can't deal with all of them at the same time, so I sit down, write down all the things I am worrying about, and then figuring out which ones need attention now, which ones can wait, which ones are more my worries than reality (those seem to grow fast when overwhelmed), etc. It seems to really help or to make it seem more manageable. Once you have them broken down like this, you can begin addressing them and then crossing them off the list, and that helps a lot.

And if it gets really overwhelming, you may want to talk to your T who was treating you for AD to see whether there's anything you can do.

Good luck and

Keep ranting here. And here's lots of hugs

I would also suggest that you get back to seeing a therapist and maybe back on your anxiety meds. If you are dealing with many difficult or annoying problems in your life at one time, that's a lot of stress. You need support and maybe your meds again to help you through it.
