Hello everyone!
My name is Alexandra. I am 20 years old. I never thought I would find my self on an anxiety forum. I had always had a good outlook on life, but lately I have felt so down and out of it. Like not my self at all. I have not been diagnosed with anxiety but I actually have an appointment tomorrow to talk to a doctor to see if there are some ways to help me out and figure out what's wrong. Let me explain what I am feeling. It started about 2 weeks ago out of no where one night I could not sleep and had horrible thoughts running though my head of someday dying, family members dying and wanting to know all the answers. I know I have my whole life to live but I feel as if I am stuck. Not knowing what to do in life even though I am in college and what not. I recently just got engaged and I do not know if this is where all this anxiety is coming from. I am usually a person who has a hard time dealing with change but always figured out a way to cope with it. I try to talk to my family and fiance about it but I feel as if they do not understand. I want this all to go away and I want to live happy since I have so much to look forward to.
I hope this forum will help guide me through this dark tunnel I am in now. I am so hoping there is a light at the end of it even though I can not see it right now.
