is really limiting one's life.
When one has strong anxiety it doesn't seem to be the anxiety that is so limiting because one does not want to do anything anyway, so it seems to be oneself that wants a limited life to stay away from pressuring things.
But, when one feels better one realizes that it is indeed the anxiety that forces sufferes to live a life no human being deserves. Without anxiety nobody would want to live the way so many sufferers are due to limiting themselves because of anxiety.
We really don't deserve this and we are made to live happy, adventurous, and motivating lives.
Not happy, adventurous, and motivating lives regarding an outside standard of what those adjectives mean, but happy, adventurous, and motivating regarding our own desires and wishes.
Unfortunately it is due to anxiety that one doesn't wish or desire anything but rather want to retreat from life and from things that ought to give joy and happiness. This includes happy relationships as well of course.
Only with anxiety relationships cannot be perceived as being happy but it is another source of pressure.
Also, things that we would greatly appreciate and be proud of doing or being part of are only pressuring if one has an anxiety disorder. Having anxiety makes a burden out of those things that would otherwise motivate us.
That is what I mean when i say that it seems to be us that don't want to live abundantly, or it seems that the things that give joy are nothing worth because for anxiety sufferers they only bear pressure and maybe even display a source of anxiety.
But, we would be able to take part in what motivates us if it was not for anxiety. And, it would in fact motivate us, however, for anxiety sufferers the natural motivation becomes an "adverse" motivation, that is one only tries to retreat rather than push forward.
I don't think it is useful to try be happy or to try do things that are supposed to give joy.
If one is unhappy, its a reality, and if there arent things one can enjoy, well then its the truth also.
But, it is due to the anxiety that we are trapped in a life we would never accept if we were healthy. Because it is our life and we deserve the very best and we would be able to both know this and take it.
And we would love to live our lives actively in terms of being our own driving force rather than being driven by the anxiety.
We would appreciate what there is for us instead of being pushed into our shell by things that incite anxiety but would not be worth even a thought if we didn't suffer.
