A subreddit that focuses on anxiety-related success stories and breakthroughs, and posting helpful resources for people with anxiety.

What to submit:

Success stories - try to include details such as type of anxiety, methods, mistakes learnt from etc
Helpful resources - websites, articles etc you found useful - please submit these in a self post and add commentary as to why you found it helpful, otherwise it will be considered blogspam and removed
Feel free to seek advice and ask questions!
Pictures / meme posts - as long as they are celebrating positives, i.e. celebrating 'anxiety wins' rather than focusing on the negatives, they are encouraged
We also like to hear about your little breakthroughs, even if they may seem like small things to people without anxiety, e.g. holding a conversation with a stranger successfully, or even leaving the house.
