Best Anxiety Quotes This Week

So today in English, we got into groups.. We had to write a poem about forgiveness in the group.
We then had to read it to the class.
I was the only girl in my group

The guys made me read the poem..

I know you guys are probably like "big deal, you always have to read"

Well.. It is a big deal.. I suffer from all types of anxiety..

So when I had to read today, I turned beat red, started stuttering, and then i was being laughed at.
I ran out of the classroom as fast as i could crying my eyes out..

My best guy friend, Alec is in that class.

He chased after me and found me.
He said "Lexy, you're the most amazing girl in the world, why the heck are you letting them get to you"
I said "I am just an embarassment."
He said "Well do me a favor"
I said "sure what is it"
He got down on one knee
He then said "Do me a favor and be my embarassment at the Prom?"
I cried..
He said "Oh and be my girlfriend too..

I think I am the happiest girl in the world right now...
 

Anxiety isn't a fashion statement. It's a miserable disorder with actual, real
uncontrollable symptoms that eat you alive and distance you from the people you love. So, stop making it "trendy".

What you SHOULD say to people dealing with any of these
Anxiety: This too shall pass, even if that sounds corny and cliche. Your anxiety will subside, you are not dying, you will not die from this, everything is going to be fine. Keep taking deep breaths, try and stay focused.
Depression: You are valid and your emotions are valid. You are a good, strong person, even if you don't feel like you are right now. Things do get better, and I know you can get through this.
Se.xual Orientation: Your body, your life, your bedroom. You choose what you do with it, and I get no say in the matter, because I am not you. I'll respect you no matter what.
Bipolar: The sun also rises. For all your bad days, weeks, or longer--you also have good ones just beyond the horizon. You know better than anyone what it means to finally hit those "highs" in your life. And I hope that you just keep growing and strengthening yourself through your treatment to extend those happy moments.
Self harm: This is your body and I'll never pass judgement over you for the things you choose to do with it. However, you should really consider speaking with a counselor about this. Not because you're "bad", but because I just want you to be safe.
Eating disorders: It's okay to eat, you have permission. Eating will not make you fat, ugly, or worthless. Eating will make you strong, healthy, and lively. You deserve to eat, you deserve happiness.
Abuse: What they did was wrong, and you had no consenting part in it. You have no need to feel guilty or shamed, although I understand that may be exactly how you are feeling right now. They're the ones at fault here, and the ball is entirely in your court if you choose to report them for that, which you are rightfully entitled to do.
Suicide: Suicide is a permanent solution to a temporary problem. You are valuable and your existence is valuable. There are billions of people on this planet, and even if you think everyone hates you and no one cares, they do and they will. You can find so many friends and loved ones if you just allow yourself the time to look for them. The world turns out to be a beautiful place and you deserve to be alive to see that.
Se.xual assault: What they did was vile and disgusting. Yes, you're now left with this horrible, traumatic event to move on from, but your life is not entirely lost. Recovery is possible, and an unfortunately large number of people have to go through that-- but they make it to the other side. So can you, you can do this. You're not dirty, you're not a "s|ut" or a "wh0re", you are a human being whose rights were violated. But you are strong, and I know you can move past this in due time.
Multiple Personality Disorder: I'll always love you no matter who you are. I only hope the absolute best for you during your recovery and treatment, and maybe one day I'll be so privileged as to love you as one whole.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder: The pain of suddenly reliving horrific events is almost unimaginable for me. Please try and remember that although it feels like it's real and it's happening right now, that it's not. You are okay, you are fine, and you are safe. You are in the present here and now, and that past can't manifest itself again to come and physically hurt you. Everything is just fine, these feelings will pass and you're going to be okay.
Schizophrenia: I am real and I can promise you that. I care. Try and find something grounding for you, an object that you can cling to to help you distinguish between whether or not you're hallucinating. You are not a freak, you are not a monster. You're a human being with rights and emotions who happens to be ill right now.

What I've learned from the Internet: Self defense techniques, art appreciation, dealing with basic life situations, politics, the economy, biology facts, to be open-minded and accepting of everyone (no matter the shape, form, gender, race, sexuality, religion, social status) the difference between gray and grey, the effect one simple, little word can have on people both good and bad, how to deal with depression, anxiety, and suicidal feelings, some of the theories of our existence, why the plague didn't effect Poland, what to do if I get buried alive, etc.
What I've learned in school: How to use a calculator to find the side of a triangle

No, but it really p//ses me off that teachers don't understand that some
students suffer from mental disorders like social anxiety and force them to talk in class for a grade. Like, no thanks. I'm perfectly fine listening and taking notes.

What if people who have anxiety are just unaccustomed to the way the world works because this is the first incarnation of their soul on the earth?

And confident people are at ease with the world because they have already been incarnated multiple times and, in a sense, already know how the world works.
