Support Wipe-Out Anxiety by Helping Me Help Young Adults

Growing up, anxiety was an internal battle that constantly made my heart beat out of my chest. After moving schools several times it only worsened and not many people knew about the challenges I was secretly facing. While individuals may not see the obstacles being thrown at them, it can make it harder to live your life as it causes one to put on a disguise. Each day I would try to be the strongest version of myself but the what ifs kept overpowering my life. What if it makes my day to day life harder? What if it changes the person I truly am? What if it doesn’t go away? But over time I learned that the “What ifs” don't define our identity, while times may be difficult there are ways to move through the obstacles.

The truth of the matter is, Anxiety is more than what ifs, its the insides fighting against them to resist the uncomfortable beating in your chest. I can testify for this because I lived my life facing an internal battle. Many days felt almost impossible, but those “perfect” days for others seemed nearly impossible for me to reach. When you hear anxiety you hear the ultimate effect that it has on individuals socially, emotionally, and much more. However, while those may be the outcome, it is the fear trapped inside your body not being able to leave. Its a part of you that’s never been revealed as it's an altered version of you.

My anxiety sprouted after my brother had an almost near-death injury in front of my eyes. From that point on, anything medical-related became a major challenge for me. While I suffer from an autoimmune disease as well, the monthly checkups I began to dread. From bloodwork to simple exams, everything triggered my anxiety to an all-time high. While I am not perfect in these situations, I have found different tools throughout my battles to help ease my nerves in different situations. For example I have found several tools that have helped me profoundly when it comes to getting my blood drawn. Some of these tools have proven to help me in times when I have had panic attacks out of nowhere.

That’s why I decided to start Wipe Out Anxiety Packs to wipe away your worry! After years of struggling, I eventually learned healthy ways to cope. I love helping others so I knew there was no better way to give back than by sharing the tools that helped me through my lowest moments. My hope is that these tools will help others reach their feel more at ease in stressful situations. These were designed as an impactful way to help individuals regain their strength and tackle their nerves with confidence. The packs will be distributed to school counseling offices as well as college campuses to help those calm their worry.

I am aware of the way it feels to take along anxiety with you on your journey of life. Anxiety is like the little stops along your road trip except they are more constant and more extreme. This is why I decided to make a difference but I can't do it alone. With your help together we can move closer to teens and young adults' lives where anxiety is no longer a worry that takes over their life. Together we can make a difference in hopes of helping them live an easier life without fear. I hope these tools help any of you struggling along your journey. Please help me in my cause by donating here. Any donation helps! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for helping me help others who struggle!
