I get scared of falling asleep, popped some pills just to sleep and the anxiety kicked in even more. It sucks. Ugh. Constantly having to live with it, but one thing I realized is that, when you stop paying too much attention to it, divert yourself by doing something crazy, it eventually fades. I Usually burst out crying for no apparent reason and believe me when I say, I literally ball my eyes out and then I pray that it exhausts me enough to fall asleep. I need to seek help, but anxiety stops me from doing anything. Hate this.

I am glad you have found a way to minimize your anxiety. But you and I both know, that that is not going to really make anything better in the long run! i really think you must get professional help.

So please check the effect of the pills you take . Anxiety is different for different people. Pills only work after you have spoke to someone. I know because I lived with depression for years. As a mental health professional I’ll advise that you start talking, if there are not other people then to yourself in the mirror. It helps …?

There is no harm in seeking help. Just consider it having a conversation with someone about your life in general. Catharsis is extremely important and if you do talk about your problems with someone professional, it will help you heal faster.
