Part of everything

[Hannah_28]

I am sitting here surrounded by my family and yet and do not feel part of anything. Why is this?

[jessed03]

Disconnection in all forms really is kinda what anxiety is about.

Withdrawn and not fitting in are normal feelings for me.

[Hannah_28]

It's normal for me whereas in the past I'd try to fight it now I'm just resigning myself to it.

I can't seem to comprehend my place in this world everything is so alien to me, I have just started trying to hang out with friends again but I can't be comfortable unless I've been drinking. So seeing them in the daytime just doesn't happen.

I don't see friends anymore other than those I work with or go to college with.

How long have your been suffering anxiety?

[Hannah_28]

About 15 years maybe? A long time. Sometimes I think I always showed signs of it.
