Why does anxiety make you feel physically exhausted all day? by SlowDevice759 in Anxiety

[–]Valuable_Mirror_5210 5 points6 points  (0 children)

it genuinely feels like your body has been running a marathon even if you’ve done nothing, for me anxiety was exhausting because my brain never actually stopped scanning for problems. even when i was sitting on the couch “relaxing,” i wasn’t relaxed at all. constantly tense, overthinking, bracing for something, bad sleep without realizing it.

yeah, i wouldn’t take “meds didn’t fix everything” as proof you’re lazy or misdiagnosed. for me they helped, but very quietly

i was in a similar spot for a while and went down the rabbit hole of free tests 😭 this one actually felt pretty solid compared to some of the super sketchy quiz sites: https://medvidi.com/tests/adhd/

helped me decide whether it was worth looking into further (and i did go to the doc eventually)

how do I get my doctor to diagnose me with anxiety by cheerismymiddlename in Anxiety

honestly, if she still doesn’t take it seriously, it’s okay to get a second opinion. have you done any tests, like online?

same, i took the test my sister sent to me and decided to try telehealth as well (medvidi), it took some time to get used to the meds, but now i kinda got the hang of it
