When in doubt, see a doctor

I'm making this post for anyone who has undiagnosed anxiety. Anxiety is one of those things that makes you feel like maybe you're over exaggerating or just not trying hard enough. I kept my anxiety to myself for 4 years out of fear no one would take me seriously, and am seeing a psychiatrist in the next couple of weeks. I just wish I had sorted all this out sooner. I can't help but think I'd be way less anxious in the present time had I seen a doctor earlier. Either way, if you feel overly anxious it's better to see a doctor and not have an anxiety disorder than to be in denial for 4 years and suffer more than you need to, just to have the disorder you kind of figured you had all along. Take it one day at a time, I know you all can do it! Take your health seriously and be honest with yourselves.
