Mental health

A couple of friends want to go to the movies. I've been kinda ignoring them, i really want to go just don't want to have an anxiety attack movie starts in 2.5 hours

Just go and enjoy yourself remember the thought is all way worse than the situation the more you get yourself out there the easier things will get I know it's hard but try not to think about things u got to do or want to do just do them x

I say go. If you're already preparing yourself "if" you have an attack, you're gearing your body up with anxiety. If you tell yourself, I'm gonna go and have a good time, nothing is gonna stop me. You should be ok, you have to do small things that you use to do, to start fighting back the anxiety otherwise it will take over your life completely. Yesterday I went to the gym and out to eat with a friend, yup I started getting signs of my heart racing and pains in my heart, but I told myself I don't care anymore either I will die, or it's just anxiety trying to mess things up for me. I stayed and fought threw it, it was hard and very uncomfortable but this has to be done, I believe it's the only way we can get our lives back. Good luck and enjoy the movie

Hi again

I would go, I felt ok at the cinema after all, who can see you in the dark?

It's one of the times I could really relax and enjoy the film.

Be brave you can do it ☺

You go and enjoy, put some faith in yourself ☺

I think you should go also.As someone who suffered with bad anxiety,I think when you avoid something it makes it twice as hard to go in the future.the anxiety attack is only a false alarm going off in the body to a danger that isn;t really there.When you realize there is no danger in that situation,the anxiety will get less in future visits.Try not to worry about the anxiety and get on with doing what it is you want to do in life
