Hello

[MeggyyR]

Hello,
I'm Meg. I struggle with anxiety, depression and other mental health issues. My anxiety is heavily impacting my job at the moment. I've joined this site as I struggle to find people who actually understand anxiety. When I talk about it to people around me, I get the "you'll be alright" kinda responses. I'm hoping to find a space to understood and heard.

Welcome
This is a reassuring and comforting place to be. I hope you will find it to be so.

I use a few places (mainly on discord) The mix I rarely use for support. More for general chitchat (seeing as that's the thread I made)

You sure have come to the right place. When I had GAD there were no anxiety websites. I was fortunate in that I found an amazing counsellor who literally changed my life, but many are not so lucky. Not many non sufferers do understand, and that's why advice should be sought from those who have been there. Ignore the 'snap out of it brigade', they have no idea what they are talking about. I do hope you find what you are looking for, and everyone here will give you support.
