I suffer with anxiety, I have for a very long time now but barely talk about it. When people talk about anxiety I feel like my anxiety isn't the same. If that makes sense....
My partner hates me for it, I live in constant fear of someone breaking into my house, even though we live in a lovely area and the house is alarmed. I live in constant fear the house will burn down while we are in it despite having smoke alarms and turning anything we don't "need" off at night.
When I leave the house, even just to nip to the shop a street away I am on edge, I can't relax if I am not home. Does this even class as anxiety? :shrug:
As a teen I witnessed something that made me house bound for years, I was so scared leaving the house that it took 3 years of therapy to encourage me that not everyone in the street or store was going to hurt me. I don't know if because of this I have a clingy-ness to home now or what. :unsure:
