As a 40-year-old man, I never thought I would be dealing with anxiety at this stage in my life. But the truth is, life throws curveballs at us and it’s okay to feel overwhelmed. I’ve found that talking about my feelings with a trusted friend or professional has been incredibly helpful. Also, taking the time to practice mindfulness and deep breathing exercises has made a significant difference in managing my anxiety. I am grateful for the support I’ve received from my loved ones and the mental health community. Remember, it’s okay not to be okay, and seeking help is a sign of strength.
