I’m 21 years old have have been struggling with serious anxiety disorder.

Im happy in my life when I’m in my comfort zone. I have recently started a new job and that is making me feel extremely anxious.

Im about to give up on it because I can’t feel like this anymore. I need this feeling to be over, so I just have to go back to working for my parents on the farm even tho it’s not my dream. But I can’t do my dream job because this anxiety is too much. The medication doesn’t feel like it works anymore.

I wish I could be normal.

Hi Tim,

yea it’s really anything new to me. It’s starting a new job where I don’t know anyone or even doing a first aid course where I don’t know anyone I always get anxious that they will ask a question I can’t answer and everyone will laugh. That’s been a huge thing for me since I was in school. Always hated public speaking and would find ways to get out of it.
