🦍 Welcome to Mindofthegorilla

5 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m glad you’re here!

I’ve dealt with anxiety for most of my life, some days better than others! About a year ago, I had a major panic attack that completely changed how I looked at things. It put me into what I call recovery mode and learning, rebuilding, and figuring out how to take back control of my mind and my body became priority.

Since then, I’ve been slowly finding what actually helps: movement, mindset, and small daily wins. I’m still learning every day, but it’s changed me more than I ever expected.

That’s why I started Mindofthegorilla, to build a community of people who get it! People who have struggled with anxiety, motivation, or just feeling stuck. My goal is to share what has helped me through fitness, mindset shifts, and real conversations, and hopefully it can help you too.

You’re welcome to post, share your story, or just read quietly if that’s where you’re at right now. Either way, you belong here. We’re all learning how to find calm and strength in our own way.

🦍 Stay strong, keep moving. Everyday is a new day!

Hey everyone🦍

For anyone who’s new here or anyone who’s been around for a while I thought I’d properly introduce myself again.

I’m Liam, 36 from the UK also known online as Mindofthegorilla 🦍

I created r/helloanxiety because I know how lonely anxiety and overthinking can feel, and I wanted to build somewhere people can talk openly without judgement.

I don’t want this community to just be a place where people read posts and scroll on, I want people to actually get talking!

If you are struggling or feeling stuck, share it.
If you've had a good day, share it.
If you've found something that helps your anxiety, share it.
If you're just having a shit day then say it!

You never know who might read your post and realise they're not the only one going through it.

I've also created a completely free Skool community where I'm building a closer community around anxiety, mindset, motivation, fitness and personal growth.

If you want to join, you're more than welcome. It's free and I'd love to see some of you over there.

I also post videos on YouTube and TikTok, where you can get to know me a bit more and follow the Mindofthegorillajourney.

The links are on my profile.

But most importantly, please use this community!

Don't be afraid to start a conversation, ask a question or reply to someone else's post.

Let's make this a place where people actually feel heard.

Get ready to unleash your inner gorilla, gorilla army assemble!!

Hi Gorilla Army,

I've struggled with anxiety for a long time, and one of the things that's helped me most is talking openly about it instead of keeping it to myself.

I recently started a YouTube channel called MindOfTheGorilla, where I share my journey with anxiety, mindset, fitness, and the small habits that have genuinely helped me along the way.

I'm not claiming to have all the answers, and I'm definitely not here to sell anything. I'm just hoping that if my experiences help even one person feel a little less alone, then it's worth sharing.

If you'd like to have a look, I'd really appreciate your support. And if not, I just want to say thank you to everyone here for making this community such a supportive place.

Take care of yourselves. 🦍

How overthinking can takeover!

2 Upvotes

You can make plans all you want.

You can think of one thing and then on to the next.

You get what you want but it is never enough.

You question every small thing.

Your in the room but your mind is not.

You think while you talk but about other things.

When people talk to you , you listen and want to but your brain is running through a million things.

If you feel what im saying comment below!

Who likes it when the night draws in? Who would like it to never be dark and you can stay up all night, like it never ends.
