I am usually alone recently since I am sad though. I just want to think about sad things by myself ya. It seems like I get anxious sometimes when I am alone. Like I have to be busy with something or I would feel anxiety feelings in my chest ya. I don't really want to be around people even though I would feel less anxious. Its a hard feeling ya. Does anyone here have anxiety of being alone like me. How do you deal with it. I would like some advice ya. Thanks.

Hello AG and welcome,

I don't have this particular issue, but know that many people with anxiety struggle with being alone...so know you are not the only one who feels this way.

It sounds like you a also be dealing with some depression. Have you been able to seek some help for this...talked to someone about how you are feeling?

If not, I encourage you to reach and and do so, as you have here. There is help available. If you are a minor, you can talk with your parents and/or school counselor. Your doctor is also a key person who could help come up with an anxiety and depression treatment plan.

At the top of the forum page here we have our Resources with self help. You may find some helpful links in there, so take a look.

...but also look into getting help from one of the sources I mentioned above.:)

You can hope to feel happy again...and enjoy both being around people...and also comfortable with being alone too!
