is feeling Good
I am 18 years old and live in a very small, quiet town where everybody knows eachother. I go to community college because I was to scared to go away to college with my panic attacks. I hope to be able to go away to college this coming fall but I am not sure. I have been having panic attacks since I was in third grade and suffer from extreme anxiety and minor OCD. I have had a boyfriend now for almost two years he trys to understand but can't seem to be open enough to fully get what I am going through. My parents just recently divorced and set me back alot but I am still a fun, loving, open person that has hope for a better tomorrow.
I love to horseback ride, I do it as much as I can whenever I can. I also love taking care of children, I work with them everyday and can not wait to have children of my own one day. I am studying to go into social work. One day I plan to own an animal rescue farm where I take in any type of animal that has been abandon or abused.

I understand about passing up opportunities because of how you're feeling inside. I bet everyone on this site has been there once or twice. But it's great that you're trying to work through this. Keep on keeping on!
I understand, if you ever need someone to listen I'm here.
Welcome to DS. I think you'll find a lot of support here. I know how horrible panic and anxiety can be. I wish you all the best.
Welcome!
I have had anxiety since I was in the third grade.. I am constantly worried about anything that you can possibly worry about. I am a very nice, fun person that loves people however the true me is often taken over by my anxiety.
I have been having panic attacks for as long as I can remember.. unlike many people I have talked to I don't have a specific fear that I can try and get over- I am just scared in general all of the time.
I just recently noticed my obsessing.. I have always had racing thoughts and anxiety and this is starting to cause OCD- I find myself more and more obsessing over so many things and performing rituals
