How can I cope with this intense anxiety?

Anxiety, usually normal after what you experienced, but in my opinion is getting worse because you continue to be stressed. Think about it this way, locking yourself up and being depressed is not going to change anything but make matters worse. You need to stop this. Yes you are going through a economical rough time, but so am i. And all i can do is just try and do better. I just turned 20 so I know what is like to be your age. I dunno if your parents are pushing you to get a job to help out, if they are not, you should have in mind that they don’t need you to, that they have everything under control. I’m sure they want you to get better and make friends and probably smile again. So if they don’t complain to you about it and they don’t ask you for it, you worry about getting better and leave everything else to them. They know what they are doing. You don’t need medication, you just need to see that what you are going through is just a part of life. And that everything is definitely bound to get better. Go to school, study your butt off, make friends, enjoy your teenage year that it goes by too soon, go to college and study something you like and makes good money. Get good grades and you or your parents won’t have to worry about paying for college, colleges will call you. =D Look up scholarships and get yourself involved. Make a big change and TRUST ME!! it will be worthe it and definitely help!!! any other questions.. feel free to ask
