How has anxiety changed you for the better?
Here are some of the ways it has changed me:
I'm thankful that anxiety is a disorder that I can have control over, and I can overcome. I have the ability to change how the anxiety impacts me by changing my thoughts, my decisions, an by getting help and support. There are other diseases that the person has no ability whatsoever to do anything about.
Having anxiety has helped me to be more understanding and empathetic towards those people with mental illnesses. I never knew how real and challenging it was to have a mental illness, and I've gained a respect towards those who are struggling with it.
Anxiety has helped me to slow down and has helped me to understand that I don't have to take everything on, and that I need to take care of me and my needs, and that it's ok to make mistakes. It has helped me to be more compassionate and loving towards myself.
Healing from anxiety has helped me to not be so worried and anxious about what other people think of me, and that I don't have to please every person.
