Invisible Me

[Sweed1]

Hi everyone, I am a sixty-three year old woman who struggles with anxiety when life becomes too hard due to stress from outside forces. I do well when things are all going right, but then all it takes is a sudden turn of events to throw me into a web of confusion and anxiety.
I live in a rural area that is pretty low key and enjoy the outdoors, reading books, sewing and crafts, to name a few of my hobbies. Looking forward to making new friends who understand how hard it is to hold on when stress levels are way to much and family just does not get it.

Sometimes it is harder to open up to those people who we are closest to. It is great that you love the outdoors, and living in a rural area is an added benefit. What do you do when you get anxious? How do you overcome it? You'll find that everyone is really friendly here and very supportive. Welcome!

Hi I am 64 oh my god I can relate to you b ecause whenever something goes wrong i start not only to get really anxious but then it starts to get worse and it develops into a major anger attack yelling and the crying even the shakes sometimes,I am home bound so I really cant go out much but when i do i love to take my chair and sit outside and knit or crochet.Hey I even sing .I love to watch the trains and planes go by.If someone stops to talk to me i automatically think to myself oh no but once I start talking I feel somewhat better.Believe me I know how hard it is because my family doesn't get it either.
