If anyone replies to this, I would greatly appreciate advice. To begin, I have dealt with anxiety from a young age, and over the past four years it has became really severe. I can’t leave the house without having feelings of anxiety, I feel a bad feeling of dread walking to school and been there in general. I feel extremely guilty around my friends because I feel unworthy of their friendship, and that they deserve somebody a lot better than me. I have tried therapy twice, I have been to the doctor three times and nothing has helped me. I feel worthless at this point, and I don’t want to feel happy because I am so used to being in a constant state of feeling down every day. I can’t handle the constant feelings of extreme guilt and anxiety, and I cannot prevent it. I’m sick of being told to breathe or meditate because it does nothing for me. I am always tired and rarely feel happiness, so I’m just stuck in this situation and I don’t know how to escape it. I can’t handle going to school, I hate I can’t be a better friend. I just hate myself.
Anxiety has taken my life over and I don’t know what to do

I don’t have your answers, I wish I did. I can only encourage you to continue finding something, anything that can elevate your your symptoms of anxiety. I overcame my crippling anxiety symptoms (medication also) by desensitizing myself to all that I feared.
This link explains what I did: verywellmind.com/desensitization-for-panic-disorder-2584291
Blessed be.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read, it meant a lot to me. I will be sure to look into desensitizing for my anxiety, and hopefully it will help me cope better.
This advise may not help but I am willing to try to help. Try wearing nice clothes like bright or something that you like to wear. Do something everyday that you like to do and set aside a time to do it. My last advice is to try to stay positive. I am sorry if this doesn’t help.
Thank you so much, the advice means a lot to me. I’ll be sure to try those thing out, and maybe it will help me a lot in in the long run 🙂
