I Have Anxiety

I have anxiety and then I feel guilty because I have the anxiety. I feel like my boyfriend doesn’t get it and doesn’t think it’s that serious. I try to do yoga 3 times a week and focus on a new challenge like a new designation or work, but sometimes it just doesn’t work. I feel like I’m drowing sometimes and I just want it all to end.

Cognitive therapists can help. I am seeing one now with good results.

Also, it might help you to read this book:
How To Stop Worrying And Start Living by Dale Carnegie.

It's an old classic but still very readable and entertaining. It has helped me and many people.

Go see a doc and get some meds or therapy to assist you.

Sounds like you need professional help.

What are you anxious about/what triggers it?.
Or are you hyper-aware and self conscious outside of reasons?

🤗 sorry!

Maybe listen to some positive calming meditation

Yeah he gets it but there is nothing he can do I’m not a professional but you can teach your brain to enjoy sex when feeling the guilt... you know what never mind bad advice, seek professional help for sure

Some of my non close family doesn't get that I have social anxiety.
I really don't understand how it's that hard to grasp;
people are just dumb sometimes if they don't know you that well.

I suggest going to a Counselor though.

I think it's important that your boyfriend gets it. If your anxiety is that much a part of your life, it's that much a part of your relationship. He should know.
