Hey I am 22 years old and I suffer from anxiety and what appears to be depression from this although I am stupid and don't wish to see a doctor about it as it means my university doctor who IMO is not the person I need due to them treating me like a child who knows little about the human body and so I don't trust them.
I am currently in my final year of university again as I failed my exams the first time due to my anxiety and which has caused me more anxiety and at times made me regret even bothering with it. I have to keep imagining the future where I am with my bf and away from all the bad people in my life.
I have had issues in the past that stem from me living at home with a nightmare of a sibling who still lives there and makes me glad I am away from home. My parents have recently moved to the middle east due to job issues and they are happy there but it is still hard.
I have promised myself that things will get better in the summer when I leave university and find a doctor who I trust but I keep worrying about the present and can't seem to see myself happy with what I have.
I used to suffer from panic attacks regularly and although I don't feel I've recovered from them but my last serious one was 3 years ago. I do have stomach problems which I've linked to anxiety as there is no food cause of them.
I am terrible at talking about myself so i'm surprised at how much I've written but thank you for reading :)
