Hello with anxiety

[Mediumbird02]

I have many disorders but I was recently diagnosed with GAD and I feel like that is a valid diagnosis. I also have social anxiety and adhd among other things. I fear death, my family and pets dying and catastrophes and being murdered or robbed or stabbed etc. I’m afraid to leave the house and sometimes I think someone will burst through my window and kill my cat or something. I lay awake in fear for hours at night. I hope things will get better. I’m on medicine but maybe I should go up a dose. Also I go to therapy every other week. Hello, thanks for listening if you’ve made it this far.

Welcome. it sounds like you’re working hard to turn things round. I really hope you manage to find a little more peace soon.

I would ask your doctor on recommendations on medicine dosage, and at least for me- I find it helps when my therapy session is every week, not every other.

Hey. What kind of therapy? CBT is the most helpful I think.

Of course everyone is different, but I would agree with this...and in my case, more specifically TF-CBT which is Trauma Focused and explores my interpretations. Difficult to put a positive spin on everything, but really trying to reverse the "learned negativity" subconsciously or otherwise.

Yes it’s CBT.
