I have suffered with bad anxiety for most of my life. It hit a peak last year and I went to the doctor and was on sertraline for about a year and had cbt. I did feel better and did not worry so much about things.
But I feel it’s creeping up on me again. I keep thinking about conversations I’ve had with people and worry I’ve said the wrong thing. It’s getting to the point where I don’t want to speak to people cos I know I’ll be replaying the conversations for weeks. I constantly worry that I am a bad parent and I am messing up the kids for life.
Has anyone successfully got their long-term anxiety under control? What did you do?
