Hello, I just stumbled across this forum and I'm hoping to find some help and support. I know that my anxiety is severely limiting me in life right now, and I'm feeling really stuck.
As a teenager I was diagnosed with and treated for depression, but most of my therapy ended up focusing on anxiety issues. Looking back, I really think a good portion my depression stemmed from the fact that anxiety was controlling my life and making me feel isolated.
Aside from a few counseling sessions throughout college, I haven't had any treatment in years. I feel that I really should be in treatment for anxiety, but I can't seem to make an appointment for myself. Making phone calls is unfortunately a huge source of anxiety for me, and I've been unable to overcome it.
I'm hoping to find some support here and maybe some advice as I try to get some help for myself.
