I grew up in such a strong family but also very strict, I’m Hispanic so they never believe in such things as depression or anxiety. I remember back when I started having anxiety some of my family members believed I was going crazy. I was so afraid, they made me believe I was a menace to them or even to myself.

Now that it’s been more than 2 years I still struggle with symptoms, I can’t make them stop, and yes I’m already an adult I mean way too old and I still cry sometimes at night because I wish I could be more open to my family about how I feel but I can’t. 

I’m not alone though, I have my partner who loves me entirely, yes including my anxiety. He has been the only person there for me since the beginning. I cannot repay him for what he does for me. He makes my anxiety go away with just a hug.

Anxiety has affected my health, my social life, everything. I don’t even wanna travel because I’m afraid I’m gonna die. 

But I want to continue to live! NO MATTER WHAT. 

Don’t give up yet, there is always hope. 
My best wishes to all of you!! Stay safe!! You are not alone!!! 🌻
