Counseling and Drugs

Anxiety often feels like the biggest burden I carry. I get scared of things that probably won't happen and overestimate the negative possibilities of things that will. The best description I saw for it recently is "anticipatory" anxiety. It keeps me home bound because the unrealistic, stupid fear makes me want to stay at home. Want is probably not stating it right. Need is how it feels. The more I push to leave, the more my brain starts to freak out. I try to find ways of convincing myself, bribes, talking myself through whatever is upsetting me...
