Filed under: panic disorder


I personally have panic disorder, and many of my friends and family do not understand how horrible it really is. They just think i’m ‘crazy, pyscho, nuts, looking for attention.’ Although that’s not the case. The problem is with any anxiety disorder, so many people are not educated about them, and it usually takes a person to have an anxiety disorder for them to understand other people with them.
I just thinking that they’re the same as everyone else, and they’re just wired differently.
Like me I have an anxiety disorder, and I think of myself as everyone else [:
Because im somewhat of a dick i think they should just get over it but i realize that wont happen so i just accept it
I kinda have it..i know there is something wrong with my brain..my sisters call me a anti social chicken
I know lots of ppl with these disorders but it doesnt make me think anythin in particular.. like if they had a sore leg I wouldnt judge them so why would I if they have a mental condition??? Thats kinda weird… but I know where you are coming from… its sad that some small minded ppl judge ppl with mental health problems….
One of my good friends has anxiety that she has to take medication for occasionally when she is in a new experience. I don’t think she tells many people and nobody really notices. It’s not a big thing at all and she’s still quite popular
I get called stupid often when it comes out that I have social phobia. I am told that it was made up by drug companies for easy marks. I am told that it is an affliction of the weak minded.
It makes me angry.
It’s not like it’s rare. Public speaking is more feared than death.
