Hi, new here

[Strange Beautiful Monster]

Just wanted to introduce myself... hello everyone!

I'm really glad to find this forum because a lot of people simply don't understand extreme anxiety and tell me to just stop worrying and chill out (as if it were that simple).

Seems like a great support forum :)

welcome to the forum, monster. cute name!

Hmm.. maybe we need to 'jack' other people into our brains so they can feel what it is like to be us.. then they surely wouldn't dismiss our anxieties and fears so easily!

LOL...isnt that the bomb! Yes they dont understand it until it hits them, then they are all like HELP!!!! Ive been living with Anxiety all my life and I have to say that even people that have anxiety dont understand other peoples anxiety...its the weirdest thing.

Im so glad I found you all...I dont feel like an outsider or a freak anymore.

Hi and welcome to the forum!

I know what you mean about people telling you to just chill out! Its kinda frustrating because they arent in our heads and just dont understand whats going on in there!
