How do I get rid of my anxiety? Please, don't tell me it's a irrational fear. I am really anxious about my work. I don't have anyone I can count on financially and I could lose my job anytime. My mom is financially dependent on me (I pay for her mortgage, condo fee, utilities bill, food), to top it all of I see life passing though my eyes, people getting married, buying their houses, cars, having kids, moving on with life, and I'm so far behind... I feel like dying honestly, but I want to fucking live, I want to live!

What is your age? I know you are stressed and under pressure, but you're probably not as far behind as you think.

Well you're helping your mom out, those people getting married might be getting helped by their parents for the wedding cost.

I realize this doesn't answer OP's question of how to get rid of the anxiety though.

I am. I'm 24, and when my siblings were my age they were already married.

True, my whole point is the anxiety. I'm having this feeling as if I am about to die and I want to literally cry right now, anxiety and depression runs in my family but I never had any episode though. Since last week I've been feeling this way, and I really don't know what triggered this.

Okay this might be a shitty answer but exercise does help with anxiety and depression. Idk could you could go for a run?

I can't. I used to exercise daily but I just don't have the time anymore

Yeah, I kinda figured. You are incredibly young. It may not feel like it to you, but you have so much more life to live. You are just becoming an adult, and the journey isn't the same for everyone. I'd be more concerned if you were in your 40's.
And you're not as behind as you think. Many 20 year olds are struggling right now.

Try smoking some weed, man. Takes the edge off real quick.
