Fear of anxiety

Post Content

For the last year now, I’ve had pretty severe anxiety. It started at 6 months postpartum. At first, it was horrible. I didn’t leave the house for a month. Even showering was mentally exhausting. Eventually, it started getting better. I started therapy and medication. I had a while where I did feel a lot better. My anxiety was virtually gone, but just recently, it’s started getting more challenging again, and nothing has changed. I still go about my days the same way, but I fear it’s because I’m afraid of the anxiety. I try to do what everyone says and just open up to the anxiety, and while it helps, it doesn’t eliminate it. I’m still constantly just always trying to stay away from my anxiety. I feel like I can’t get a break, and I’m just in this constant loop. Where am I supposed to go from here? How do I end this spiral? a break and I’m just in this constant loop where am I supposed to go from here how do I end this spiral.
