Ever since I have been gripped by paralyzing anxiety last year, My life has slowly unravelled in every aspect. For starters I am a college student. Ever since my anxiety began, I have not been able to trust myself with regard to anything, my value in the eyes of others, my ability to college assignments, and so on. My anxiety has taken a toll on my closest friends as well and now I feel like an utter liability. I don't know whom to talk to because nobody seems to understand. Even if they listen they end up giving the blandest and most uninspiring suggestions ever, such as "you need to get your shit together" or "I don't know how you are gonna do it but you need to get yourself out of this". I am really trying my best to get better but I can't seem to find  a way out. I am undergoing therapy atm with my therapist employing CBT; however I find the entire thing extremely frustrating. I am not sure if it will work; some part of me just feels like there's no coming out of this. I have no clue how to move forward. I don't know how to get rid of anxiety. I don't know how to preserve my friendships when I am suffering from this condition. Everything seems really bleak at the moment
