#your problems are valid

if you have to deal with it, it's real. if it's out of control, it's real. if you have found a way to manage it, it's real. if you only recently discovered it, it's real. if you known about it forever, it's real. it's still real if you're able to function. it's still real if not everyone notices. it's still real if it only bothers you sometimes.

your problems are still valid if a lot of people deal with them too.

your problems are still valid if other people have bigger problems.

1. if you have intsa, my advice is start saving posts with calming music, or an image that makes you happy. i personally save posts of things or people that remind me to calm down and breathe.

2. there are a few free apps that can help monitor or track your anxiety, 7cups is great if you need to talk to someone and Youper helps monitor your anxiety, emotions, and can even help determine the cause of certain feelings over time

3. when you realize that you´re starting to panic, feel your pulse. this can help you focus on a singular thing and can set a good beat for breathing

4. when you feel like a burden and start think that others have it much worse, breathe. take a break and please know that independantly whether someone had it worse or not your problem is still valid, and you deserve love, care and affection. never, ever, ever settle for pity and antagonizing stares. you deserve attention towards your problems. little or big, your problems are problems and they need to be dealt with seriously

It doesn’t matter how many other people’s problems seem bigger, you still have a right to be upset by yours. You can still be tired and stressed when someone else says they’re more tired and stressed.
