Hi, My name is Tom.
I am 14 years old, soon to be 15, and I have anxiety disorders.
I have since january 2021;
I can still manage it with CBD oil which helps me a lot to get through all of this. I wouldn't say it's the best way to feel better, but I'm afraid of medication, even though I was on Prozac for 6 months from January 2021 to July 2021.
I unfortunately tried vape nicotine and eventually became addicted to it, I don't touch drugs and never will, I wouldn't say I never tried because I did and I am in no way proud of that.
When I was not yet anxious, a friend of mine was smoking pot and told me to try it, so he gave me a joint and told me to hit on it, I felt absolutely nothing even though it was very strong for him, I had derealization from that but that was not the main factor that caused my anxiety. I will never touch drugs again because of that.
The year 2020 was extremely hard for me mentally and physically, I think all the traumatic events that happened led me to have anxiety today.
I always felt socially awkward and stressed, but it was never as bad as it was after everything that happened.
It took me a lot of courage to talk about all of that, the things that I am not proud about;
I'm making an account here to help people who just found out they have anxiety and also to feel less alone in this struggle and overcome this anxiety once again.
