SUPPORT Those Suffering from Anxiety!
SUPPORT Those Suffering from Anxiety!
The Issue
Hello all,
I will start off with this: anxiety is a real problem. There are millions of people out there who live with anxiety, diagnosed or not, who need more. More medication, more therapy, more research. But will we really ever get it? I mean, anxiety isn't THAT big of a deal.. right? Wrong!
Anxiety is one of the worst feelings ever. You just feel out of control, your mind is the one making the decisions, and they are not always the best. You need to get something accomplished, but your anxiety just won't let you. Sound familiar?
- My inspiration: As someone who is no stranger to anxiety, I often search the internet for tips and tricks on how to ease the racing thoughts. I could not help but notice that, when searching, a lot of the websites were not from the United States. Not that the tips would be that different, but wouldn't be nice to see some American representation? I would like to see an American based foundation that provides help and offers, not permanent, but still helpful, solutions for our anxiety needs. As far as I know there is only ONE charity for anxiety out there, and it is not in America, not that I have any problems with that. But a LOT of individuals, including myself, struggle with anxiety. It would be amazing to see even worldwide anxiety foundations.
Anxiety is often overlooked as a "problem" but no one seems to have the real solution.
*We should have a charity/foundation in order for more research to be done and to answer questions such as:
1.) What is anxiety?
2.) Why is anxiety worse in others?
3.) What can we do to alleviate the symptoms?
-Research on what medications can be used.
-Research on what medications work the best on the most people, without the worst side effects.
-Research on why some individuals have anxiety and some don't.
With the help of clinical trials and blind studies we can see what really makes anxiety tick.
Let's be clear, anxiety sucks, but with your support we can finally have a foundation that will have our backs!
Some days you just feel like giving up, but you know you can't. You keep getting knocked down by the same worries, but that does not stop you, no, it makes you stronger. As much as you want to throw in the towel, you know that would be letting your anxiety win. So you keep fighting and keep winning!
