Hello everyone- not good at these sort of things but I hope to find help and like minded people on this forum.

I suffer from anxiety, most of the time it is irrational and it is starting to impact my life a lot.

My wife doesn’t know how to deal with it and I try so hard to hide it from my kids but it is so hard, I would just like to talk with people who know what I’m going through.

Thank you for reading

Thank you Petal22 - it means a lot to talk to someone, especially someone who has been through it.

its good to hear you have conquered it, makes me feel I can too.

I am seeking help through a psychologist at work, I get four free consultations, we’ll see how that goes, fingers crossed.
