Hey all,
Figure I'd introduce myself. My name is Jay I've had anxiety pretty much my whole life it has come and gone. Within the past 6 months I had a really bad anxiety attack and it has stuck with me ever since. I'm 22 years old with a Full time Job as well as taking online classes to complete my associates degree.
I got a really big anxiety attack back in June and that just sent my world spiraling down. It led me to a few weeks of anxiety/worry/panic and depression and that hit me pretty hard since I'm normally a very optimistic, energetic, funny/joking type of person. Initially i was afraid to go to work, go out, or do anything for fear I would get another anxiety attack.
I've since gotten much better as I'm learning about anxiety. I'm not big on medication since I hate taking it so that was never a way out for me. I've done therapy once when I was younger but don't feel the need to resort to that as I have people in my life that I am able to talk to whenever I'm feeling blue.
Thats It mostly, don't want to keep going :lol:
