I have suffered with anxiety since my late twenties. I'm now forty six and it has been a constant battle for seventeen years just to manage normal life. I often over think things to the extreme for someone who is a works supervisor it is very difficult to not show it to my team. I've also found that finding a comfortable place to retreat to is getting more difficult often I can't find that place that will let me switch off. Its difficult for people who haven't experienced the intensity of a anxiety disorder to understand or relate to your problem. For all of you who are suffering with one of these disorders take care and I hope things get better

I never had anxiety until I got my new job, always worried I messed something up and will pay for it later. I try to tell myself, its normal to mess up and waiting longer to do tasks or confront my fear always leads to bigger problems. Ive also learned to try to turn my fear into curiosity, what will happen if I try x. I still get scared and it takes a lot of energy to get through the 8 hours, but using these techniques has actually made it at least a bit easier.
Oh and a notepad. I write everything I want to say on a notepad, then I go and say it. This makes it a bit easier

3: 42 that explains 1 reoccurring nightmare where my parents leave me, mom walking away to the right and dad away walking to the left and me standing still in the middle, arms stretched out reaching for them, and calling them to come back. once I actually woke myself up yelling out loud and finding my arm stretched out in front of me, that was a depressing night. dad left when I was 9, was never really there growing up. mom left me mentally after her 2nd stroke, she's a completely different person.

I have anxiety, and I can't talk to people unless I have my best friend, or my boyfriend. Otherwise if I do talk to people alone, I start shaking and get my words jambled up, I also have a weird habit of picking the dead skin off my fingers when I'm anxious. I especially can't get tasks done, when it came to my homework whist I was in school, I was rushing it last minute, the stress was overwhelming.

Yes, through out my life I have over thought basically everything everyday.
Yes, I've always been outward going.
And no I yelled defensively at everyone too.
It's never been a calm or pleasant life.
Anger issues, depression, and masking it all by
the way I kept everyone, a certain length away.

Rewatching shows over and over again, because my anxiety causes me to stress about not knowing whats happening next. This is how I calm anxiety sometimes, but it can also stop me from watching new episodes of shows I really like, because Im too stressed that someone will just die etc. Im glad Im not the only one.

Great video. This is exactly what I learned from the Attacking Anxiety & Depression home study program. Which got me off all my psych meds. So, I really appreciate all the reminders Psch2go sends out all the time. It really helps even though I freed myself from panic attacks many years ago now.

Yep. I've been on disability allowance for the past 6 years due to my anxiety levels, the depression doesn't help either. Tried to work, had a panic attack as I had to deal with a customer buying something, she left without paying, I got hoofed.

Ive had anxiety since the third grade and I am now in high school but still this video helped me identify some of the traits of my anxiety, that I didnt know was anxiety. It helps to know that it isnt just me doing some of these things. (:

Ive had anxiety since a young kid but never understood what I was feeling so I never said anything, I just thought it was me until I got older and diagnosed. Its still a struggle to this day, seems like its more mental than anything else

As a PTSD veteran, anxiety has ruined my marriage, my social life, and my nursing career. Now, as a 50 year old man, I'm so lonely. Depression, anxiety, OCD, chronic pain, and binge eating disorder. I feel like I'm in prison.

Have never even thought about anxiety. as I never heard what it means. This video describes me to a tee. Just wish there was a, even ONE, Therapist that was free to see me. No therapists available anywhere.

Check all of them. It's like watching a biography. I had no idea that watching the same shows or listening to the same books was part of it. I thought it was just to have something to fall asleep to.

Maybe they should just deal with it? Compared to what I get to deal with when a bipolar manic episode kicks in, I'm really not interested in what nervous nellies claim to suffer through.

Choosing to make the viewer uncomfortable with the uncannily smooth animations was a great artistic choice, considering the video is about anxiety. Expertly done.

courtesy of toxic masculinity I have been programmed to internalize it and deal with it alone later. My only saving grace is my ADHD helps me pretend to be sociable.

I can relate to all of these, sometimes I overthink things, and sometimes I don't think enough which leads to a problem that now I have to overthink about

This seems accurate. But, I would like everyone to know that the God I serve can and will take your anxieties away if you ask Him and believe in Him.
