I used to be a really depressed teenager, I had relationship problems, I still have family problems, I know how it feels to lose someone to suicide..... Lets just say I had a lot of problems with pretty much everything and I still have problems that I am still dealing with, but if someone has a question to ask me I will try my best to answer it, I will not judge you no matter how young or old you are.
We all have problems.
No matter how big or small.

Lately, I've been really struggling to control my anxious thoughts and compulsive tendencies. I recently started working at an internship and have great difficulty forcing myself to go due to the anxiety I feel by the social obligation it requires. As a result, I am often absent during the week. I am always worried about what people think of me or if people are judging me. During times of great stress, I feel like running away. This is irrational and unrealistic seeing as my savings have been greatly reduced in order for me to finace working at this internship, which happens to be unpaid. I'm not currently on medication nor am I seeing a therapist because I don't have health insurance. Another factor that concerns me is my age. I am twenty-six years old and still living with my parents. I feel like I'm not advancing or progressing in life because of my anxiety. I often seriously think about running away but I know this is irrational, illogical and unrealistic given that I don't have enough money to support myself. I worry that I'll never fully be able to care for and support myself like everyone else does. Everything in life, especially social interaction, is very difficult and strenous for me. I currently have $250 in my savings account--I know most of the responses will try to dissuade me, but I would like to know if there are any options I can pursue in order to move forward with my life. I'm thinking about possibly going into the airforce; I know it would be a great challenge but they provide housing and a stipend every month for food. Plus, I'd be earning money and living independently. (link)
