I’m a 25F and I’m coming to grips that the only 100% constant and guaranteed presence in your life is yourself. As a kid, you have your parents and they’ll always be there to catch you or let you move back in with them if things go wrong (or your anxiety gets too bad). Then you grow up and you’re no longer in school surrounded by friends who are always there. You still have some friends and family but no one who will ever support you more than your parents did when you were a kid. This is the thought that haunts my dreams. I’m alone in the world and it’s all on me to survive. What happens if I get such bad anxiety and end up out of work and run out of money? My parents would have scooped me up but now I’m on my own. Anyone else have these thoughts? Any advice on how to challenge them? To me they seem too accurate to refute right now but I’m in it so maybe someone from the outside can see it all better.
