Have faith: Well, you are very young to have a lot of anxiety and fears. Life gets better in some ways as you get older, but u have more responsibilities &expectations along the way. You can listen to advice from your parents &older people. Make the best decisions u can, &don't be afraid to take risks. Life is a personal journey &we all fall flat on our faces sometimes, but we get back up &keep trying.

There is hope: Many people worry about the future and what it will bring. Sometimes just trying to get out of your comfort zone and do things will build your confidence. If you feel your worries are getting in the way of you being able to move forward it may be time for some help. There are several types of therapy that specifically work on decreasing your worries and increasing your confidence.
