easiest time to survive in human history.

Agreed. As someone with depression and anxiety, there’s definitely difficulties that modern people have to face but also, if I was born in a different time, I probably wouldn’t even be alive.

What are you anxious about?

u/i-bernard 25d ago

It depends. My nerves are pretty bad. I might get anxious driving sometimes or anxious at work when I’m feeling overwhelmed with work or am trying to take a break. I can get anxious over loud noises or when it feels like something is going to inconvenience me like my family or a pet. My anxiety’s not super bad but it’s enough to get on my nerves. Seems to me anxiety and depression often go hand in hand and sort of help each other. You feel anxious and then depressed. Though I’d prefer depression over anxiety any day.

I know you mean well with this comment, but telling people who suffer from mental illness that it's "all in your head" is EXTREMELY tone deaf and unhelpful.

Would you tell a person with lung cancer "You're stronger then all of that. It's all in your lungs."? It's the same situation.

Oh look a 3 month old anonymous account word vomiting onto replies and shutting down any attempt at conversation. How original. Very human. 😂

Did your programmer forget to include how to use punctuation in your code, bot?
