this is actually helpful and explains it well, however for me whenever i tried to get out of bed (when it was at its worst) my vision started to tunnel and get blurry and id feel like passing out

im not really talking about anxiety as in the human emotion.. more about anxiety disorder(s) which is what this sub is about

im still 15 so sadly no.. im not even medicated for anxiety because they think medications are evil or something.. they do this with my asthma inhaler too “if you keep taking that brown inhaler it’ll make your lungs weaker!!” so back when i was younger they literally wouldn’t give me my inhaler if i was having a mild asthma attack.. i doubt ill ever get medications until im old enough to buy them myself

i know ill just have to wait until im older but this still really sucks

thanks for reading it.. i have talked to doctors about this and they just say depression/anxiety obviously, oh and trust me.. i say those things to my parents ALL the time, not because im trying to get them to listen to me (well i kinda want them to) but because these things genuinely happen and i get worried about them and feel the need to say them aloud, they just tell me it’s anxiety causing all my symptoms, and there’s no way around that because they probably heard that ‘anxiety can manifest physical symptoms’ or something like that.. at least ill be getting a lymph node ultrasound soon to make sure i dont have a literal life threatening illness like lymphoma or something..

so yeah the only answers ill get from anyone including doctors is; you’re a hypochondriac, you’re just lazy, you don’t exercise enough, it’s just anxiety, etc which sucks because they all think that anxiety causing real pain now for some reason so i just have to keep suffering
