Do You ever feel going out is like going to a war zone???? It is a very common problem with people who have anxiety issues. But our society is incapable to understand this term. They call it being overdramatic.
When I was going through anxiety I couldn’t understand what was happening to me. I couldn’t talk to anybody and explain my condition.
What will people say? People will stare.... Sweaty palms, fast breathing, nausea, Unwell feeling......Fear & Fear all around.
Unconsciously, I could hear the buzzing sounds all the time. It was annoying. Mental health controls our day today activities. I never wanted anybody, get to know my real condition. I was carrying two faces with me all the time, one was my happy face which immediately turns on around people and other was the reality which I was going through. I use to laugh loudly on basic jokes around people, One day one of my work colleague asked me why you laugh loud on all the jokes ? and I had a sudden insight. It felt like somebody caught me right away. I just smiled and walked away.
That whole evening those words was running in my mind. I was very anxious. I looked into mirror and started practicing that how should I behave around people. what would be my facial expression over different situations. I was tired that evening , I cried and went to bed.
The worst thing you could possibly tell to an anxiety patient is …. Quit being overdramatic.
I was curious to know the answers to my anxiety.
It wasn’t easy for me to live like this. I was a cheerful girl. I never went through any of the harshness of life ever, and all thanks to my family who stood by me no matter what!
Its okay, if it is not okay today, There is always a tomorrow. Just Breath
I put all my effort in people when I meet them for the first time and continues with the same intensity. Every encounter, whether it is with the right person or wrong one, teaches you something valuable. May be that’s why people say, everything happens for a good reason.
Ask for help always. But don’t forget self help.
I think , I was seeking help from everyone including strangers around me. Days were heavy and nights were tiring. I still remember myself looking around and felt hopeless. Fear of loneliness was killing me inside. Nobody can help until you decide to stand for yourself. The very first step is to allow yourself to heal.
Paint , Meditate, Isolate, colour, Listen to Music, Eat healthy, Look for recipes, Explore your area of interest….. Try to explore every possible hobby and see the MAGIC.
Kindness is the key to healing from concussion. People who could sewed their own wounds, needs nobody to become a warrior.
Do not give up. Be Kind…. Not only to others but to yourself too.
