Anxiety ruins a lot for me

[BeachLife]

Does anyone else feel the same way? I feel like that if I didn't have anxiety then I would have a lot more
accomplished in my life right now. I'm 20 years old and I'm a girl. I haven't got my license yet because I get extremely nervous
and I can't think at all knowing I'm in the car with a stranger who is judging every move I make. It's like my brain decides that it wants to freeze
and I end up making stupid mistakes that I wouldn't normally make. I did try one time to get my license and I ended up failing because my anxiety was
driving me crazy and I couldn't even do what I had practiced over and over before I went. I'm also scared of driving and scared of getting into my first wreck. I can't relax at all. I would be a happier person if I didn't have anxiety stopping me from doing what I want to do.
I have GAD and I definitely have social anxiety. I don't talk on the phone with anyone and I hardly ever go out anywhere
very crowded unless it's with my closest friends. I avoid going to places I know will be crowded. I can't meet new people. When
I go out to a crowded place, I think that everyone is judging me and I feel so awkard all the time. I hate when someone meets me for the first
time and they think I'm stuck up just because I won't talk to them. They don't understand that I have no idea what to say and how stupid I feel because
of my anxiety. I feel like it's ruining my life. I wish I could be like everyone else but I'm stuck with this horrible anxiety all the time. The people in my life don't understand at all and they aren't supportive in any way. I just get pushed and yelled at to do all of these things that may be easy for them to do but not for me. It always makes me want to cry because no one understands how I feel. I want to do all of these things but I just can't do them.

Hi I am the same and no one understands it's sad :-(

Hey loulou, I agree with you ): I wish I had people in my life that I could go to and that understands what I'm going through
but I don't. I just keep it to myself most of the time.

I know nobody understand think of them as stupid idiot
Even I do not get help from friends and relatives

My parents are in other country and they are far so can not help me

Can not fly due to anxiety it sucks but you have to be brave and strong
Worrying and sitting doing nothing about it would not help you

If you are not on any medication try following

L theanine for calmness and it's safe
B complex for happy mood take with food

Too bad hearing that you don't have anybody that supports you! That makes it extra hard. I do have the luck that I am getting support from my best friends and family. They don't understand it, but they do try to help me and listen to me. What you say about anxiety ruining your life. Sounds familiar to me. Especially when things are going bad it does make you not doing the things you want to. Do you see a therapist? I hope so, because it sounds like you could really use one. If you are doing better and feeling more confident in yourself, maybe then you can get your drivers licence. For now I would just focus on the most important parts...going to work/school, seeing your friends and being able to do things. When you manage to do that, maybe then you can focus on your drivers licence. I hope it helps! Hopefully you get better soon! Know that you are not alone!
