What's something positive your anxiety has brought out in you?

[justsayyes]

I agree. It does make me more sensitive in how others feel especially to those who i feel are struggling from anxiety as i do. It makes me more understanding and considerate of them because i know exactly what they're going through, the emotions they feel and the thoughts running through their head.

I think it helps me be more responsible, and also understand other people better. I have always been able to help and listens to others, without being judgmental because I know how it is to be different and have problems. I feel like because I am anxious and worried about things alot that in some way it make me more responsible and aware of whats going on.

I think it's helped me be more sympathetic towards others. It's easier to relate to people and makes you very perceptive of their body language and feelings. Makes it easy to be a shoulder that they can lean on if they're feeling down. Especially other people with anxiety, since I think it's a condition often misunderstood by the general public.

Oddly enough my anxiety has forced me to be contented with just being me, alone. I'm able to foster my creativity because of my anxiety as well. When I'm alone and panicking I write or draw and after some time I've seen some improvement in my work. I also read a lot now because of my anxiety and the novels I'm reading helps me empathize with people.
