Anxiety at Its Finest
For everyone who lives everyday with anxiety, know you are not alone. You act not yourself or are fearful of everything around you. I am one that have to live with it everyday. It is not something I want to have in life, but it is something you must learn to manage. Recently I have gone to group counselling, learning about mindfulness and self-compassion. It is a learning curve, to learn to live with anxiety everyday. Be as positive as you can, keep your head up high; move forward and don’t look back. Live in the now and not the past. Your life matters; only you can be the judge to fix you the way you want to. I have recently downloaded an app and have started meditating. It has been helping me in the moment, and that is all you can hope for. Treatment is a long process that is never ending.

Living with Mental Illness
We all know living with a mental illness is a struggle. It is one thing we can never get away from, even with all the help we seek. It's the one thing that latches on to us and never leaves. Once you have it, you can never get rid of it. Make yourself stronger? Of course, but you need to learn to cope with it and maintain your happiness. You never know if something or someone will set it off again. You will always be a ticking time bomb.
