Fighting anxiety
Wednesday, October 9, 2019
We live in a world of continuous struggle. Anxiety is attentive to attack you when you are most vulnerable. That's why it's so important to be strengthened in faith and a lot of self-love to be able to fight and not be defeated. In the 21st century nobody is exempt from mental disorders such as: depression, anxiety, panic, bipolar,... The hurried life we live in and the demands of the society has affected the quality of life and the expectations of being happy. Happiness have a different definition now because many people think that only what makes others happy should make "me" feel happy too. The wrong use of social media platforms have created a world of dissatisfied and confused young people.
Day by day it affects our lives and without realizing it we are immersed in an anxiety that if not treated correctly can control your body and mind. A few years ago I suffered from anxiety attacks that basically controlled my life. Sometimes we think that psychological problems are for unbalanced people or those who have suffered trauma during their lifetime. We overlook that everything can happen to others and not to us. I have always been very familiar, religious and nature lover; I've never thought that my restless and demanding personality would lead me to a catharsis of anxiety. Always motivated to get ahead and make my family proud I never left free time for myself. I just studied and so I basically walked away from socializing with people my age. One day I arrived at the university and collapsed. My father was very scared, which was very strange in him, because he was a man of a strong and not very expressive character. He walked for 15 minutes to find a car because he's were in a friends house, desperate to get to college.
It's felt as if you were in the middle of the ocean and the waves dragged you to the bottom. The more you try to get out the stronger the waves hit you. However, you never stop trying and while the waves hit you motivate you to lift your head with greater force. You never stop and continue swimming because you know that in the end you will get to the place you dream about. It is difficult when the ocean is so immense and you only feel its waves hitting you. We need to remember that faith is bigger than any ocean and more powerful than any wave.
Since then I suffered panic attacks for months. I've always been very thin, but at that time I drastically lost weight. My family were so worried because doctors couldn't find out what I had. My mother was very desperate and one day literally carrying me in her arms because I could barely walk took me to a mental health specialist. When I was diagnostic with anxiety, my family were very surprised. I took about a year to recover physically. Little by little and with the help of doctors, my family and my absolute disposition to recover I took control of my body, mind and life.
I realized that we are all vulnerable.
I realized that we should enjoy all the time with what really makes us happy.
I realized that there is nothing more important than peace and harmony.
I realized that I must fight when is necessary.

I'm still attentive and always looking to feel good and comfortable with everything I want to do. I do not take anything for granted, but I am not obsessed with achieving things.
Perfection only exists in God.
You should always fallow your heart and what makes you feel good and happy. Society always will try to encourage you to be a copy of another person. Never pretend to be someone other than who you are. Always seek to help others; remember that giving is more rewarding than receiving.
