If you feel that anxiety and excessive worry is interfering with your daily life — such as your ability to maintain relationships or complete everyday tasks — you should talk with a doctor or mental health professional. Here’s a list of online therapy providers you can start with.
If you’d like to talk to someone immediately, there are resources available to you. To get safe, judgment-free support from a skilled mental health worker, you can call SAMHSA’s National Helpline at 1-800-662-4357.
You can also call a warmline, which offers help before feelings of anxiety become worse. There are national as well as state-specific warmlines, and a directory from the National Alliance on Mental Illness can be found here.
