InstaAdvice with LikeKristen
Hello! And welcome back to InstaAdvice with LikeKristen. I am
really hoping you guys are enjoying this series. If you guys don't know what InstaAdvice is
I ask you guys on my Instagram every single
Sunday morning, good morning, to ask me questions about mental health,
psychology, college, life,
anything you guys want. I am going to answer them very
quickly in a youtube segment. So if you would like to be apart of
InstaAdvice please go and follow my Instagram. Today's question
is a very interesting one and something that I went through
when I was in highschool and that question is
I actually went through this with my family and a few
partners that I had in the past. When
their like "You shouldn't be anxious about that. That's
a dumb anxiety to have. Why are you so
dumb with your anxieties?" like are the things that people
told me and that is very harmful because for you
it's a real anxiety. I mean my anxieties are: going out and being with people
makes me anxious. Getting into small confined spaces
like cars makes me anxious. Things like that that for a "normal"
human being wouldn't be anxious about I
am severely about them. And with school coming up
there's a lot of anxieties. Tests, friends, drama,
bullying. Those are all things that we can get anxious about and
they're totally valid. It really
hurts you when someone says "Hey! Those anxieties
are fake." Or "Those anxieties don't matter." Because for you it's
your experience and your reality and they're real to you.
So your question is, my friends tell me I shouldn't be anxious about certain things
but I cannot control my anxieties, what should I do? First off,
you should tell them that. You should tell them that you cannot
control your anxieties because maybe they don't
understand anxiety. This might be a good time for you to educate them
Say "hey, this is what anxiety is. This is what
I'm experiencing. And if you would like to know more I can give you resources
but, hey this is real for me and just because you
are not feeling that way or this doesn't make you feel
anxious or nervous
it does for me." And you need to tell them that.
Because maybe they don't know. Your anxieties are not fake.
Your anxieties are your reality and I'm going to keep saying that
those are not fake. What you are experiencing is not fake.
And if no one has ever told you that I want to tell you that. It's not
fake. This is a good example to tell your friends. Just like you cannot control
a cold and you cannot control the cold symptoms,
I cannot control my anxieties. I have no
control over my symptoms. If they understand and
are supportive, awesome.
You have a support system. You have someone that you can talk to and that's
great. Those are true friends. But if you don't have people who
take it well, if they don't understand. If they say
no. You're just faking it. Or those anxieties don't exist
are those really friends you want in your life? Friends are a huge part
of being a teenager and a huge part of just being a kid. But if
those friends are negative and those friends are not being supportive
for you maybe it's time to just not be friends with them
or pull back a little bit
and not share those parts of your life with them. There are
some friends for me that I love
having fun with and I love going out with but I won't share
the personal intimate secrets with them.
Those personal intimate secrets about my anxieties and my mental health
and just life in general I save that with different friends.
Closer friends. What would you do in this scenario? If someone was telling
you that your anxieties did not exist. I would to know
and it might be helpful our viewer. Again, my name is Kristen.
I make videos every week. So please subscribe and hit that bell
so you know when my videos come out. I love you guys. Please stay safe and
Ill see you guys next time.
