I'm sick of feeling anxious at every turn. My most recent long term relationship, ended around 6 months ago and it did NOT end well. I thought by now, my anxiety would have died down a bit , but no, it's just as bad. I hear certain noises and it triggers the anxiety. My phone is constantly on mute because I don't want to hear the text message sound, because it triggers my anxiety. I hear / see an email come through, it triggers my anxiety. 

I've had to turn off my notifications , but i'm now missing things / important emails because of this. 

I have been tempted to go see a doc and perhaps get some sort of medication, but to be honest last time I went to the doc to ask for one thing, I ended up getting tests for other things and never got the original thing that I asked for. 

I very rarely go out (unless it's work) and I definitely don't head out at night (unless i'm with a group of friends) .. I'm so scared to even post on the internet. Whether that be on Insta, FB, Tik Tok, even to an extent here and this is mainly anon. Why ? Because i'm afraid i'll be "found out" by my ex. I mean shit not that i'm doing anything wrong ...... but that's my anxiety .... :( 

I want to get out, I want to meet new people.. I want to meet people who don't know my past, start fresh I guess, but my anxiety is holding me back ... 

What do I do ? What have you done? any advise ?
