It seems like everyone and their mother talks about how beneficial exercising is for mental health. But what happens when exercise makes anxiety worse?
What happens when exercising feels like a panic attack?
Today, I’m going to dive deeper and talk about the steps I’m taking to regain my exercise freedom.
If your friend has social anxiety, it can be quite painful and difficult to understand.
Social anxiety affects so many of us, but unfortunately not that many people talk openly about it.
People are too afraid of being judged, and this only sparks a lot of stigma and misunderstandings.
Anxiety can add a lot of stress to your relationship. Fact.
Even though anxiety has been an everyday constant in my life since I was 11 years old, I’ve felt my anxiety severely increase due to my separation anxiety from my boyfriend.
It’s added a lot of strain on our relationship, but it has also made our relationship that much stronger.
For some reason, there is still a huge misconception that video games are bad for you and your mental health.
They make you violent. You’re irresponsible and lazy if you play them.

Whenever I get the chance to take a bath, I always do because there are so many health benefits of baths.
I used to take a bubble bath almost every night as a form of daily therapy when I used to have a bathtub in my old house.
Now that I don’t have a bathtub anymore, I’m amazed at how much better I feel when I take baths as a part of my self-care routine.
Don’t you ever wish you could tell anxiety to shut up?
I’ve had anxiety since I was at least 4 years old, but it took until the last year or so to really try and get my anxiety in check.
I’ve spent a lot of time trying to fight my anxiety or avoiding certain things that made me uncomfortable, but that only made my anxiety worse.
