i've lived years with anxiety that i can't control. it makes everything difficult for me. i haven't been able to enjoy anything completely that i've experienced in so long it's unbelievable. just sitting down at a resteraunt or going anywhere... i can't relax. it's ruined so much that i wish i could be enjoying, and i'm tired of it. i've been tired for a long time but i don't know what to do. other people don't take it seriously and just call me paranoid because i keep the extent of my anxiety to myself.
i don't know how to come clean to my parents that i do have a problem. i'm afraid they'll tell me it's no big deal or think i just want attention. i don't want to tell them that for a while now there has been something wrong.
i'm going to college this fall and i don't want to enter the next stage of my life with this. i want help i just don't know how to ask for it.
