I was diagnosed with Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) in my early 20s, but I've suffered from it my entire life. Days like today are thankfully not as common for me as they once were, but waking up feeling dysregulated means I'll have to be very gentle with myself for the rest of the day. Otherwise, I may spiral again. Sharing this to spread awareness of what living with this disorder can be like, and to talk about how I handle it.
