To anyone who has ever felt alone..

I left high school thinking that everything was going to get better. However, I found that University was not at all what I expected. I let my anxiety get in the way of my life, I was so afraid to put myself out there, so I just decided to be invisible. I have had to overcome a lot of my fears this year, there were times where I didn’t think I would make it, but I survived. If there is someone out there who feels the way I do, I want you to know that you are not alone. Put yourself out there, find friends who will support you and love you no matter what. I have decided that I will no longer let my anxiety run my life, I have the power to improve my life and so do YOU! Anxiety can affect people in different ways for me I hate large crowds, so I have never really enjoyed going to university parties. My friends have got angry at me before and have said: “you know its just a party so why is it such a big deal.” I understand why my friends get mad, heck I get angry at myself too, I say to myself

Anxiety can affect people in different ways, but for me, the big thing is I hate large crowds, so I have never really enjoyed going to university parties. My friends have got angry at me before and have said: “you know its just a party so why is it such a big deal.” I understand why my friends get mad, heck I get angry at myself too, I say to myself kenz why can’t you just be a “normal” teenager and have fun. But for me when I am surrounded by large crowds I can get very anxious, my heart beats like crazy, and I just fear the worse. This is something that I have to overcome every day because I cannot avoid large groups of people. Don’t live your life in fear, because if you do that, you are just letting anxiety win!

You are never alone-
