Hi everyone, my name is Hanna (pen name/nickname-ish)

To be completely honest, I'm scared to talk about my problems since I'm afraid of people secretly judging me.

Currently dealing with family issues, anxiety and other stuff that I don't think can be confirmed yet.

Hi Hanna,

I am new here too. I've found it to be a very supportive, judgement free place. Hope you find it helpful too.

Hi Hanna,

Welcome to the forum!

Like Janey said, this forum is a supportive place. Most people here have experienced personal hardships and/or mental illness.

You are welcome to share more about your situation with anxiety and family. I have had OCD/anxiety for 10 years, since I was 13. Talking about it can help. If you don't mind me asking, have you seen a doctor or mental health professional before?

Whenever you're ready, you can post back here 🙂

Best wishes,

Zeal

Hi. Hanna. Welcome to the forum. The feeling of being judged is terrible. I have struggled to find my confidence and believe in myself. We are here to listen and help without judgement cos no one is really perfect. Have a nice day.
