Description

You know those types of friends that you can call and drop your deepest secrets on or your weirdest anxiety-ridden thoughts? We’re those types of friends. Hi, we’re Heike and Tessa aka Girls w/ Anxiety aka GWA. We aren’t doctors, medical professionals, or any of that jazz (therapy is amazing btw, you should go). We’re just two girls who don’t want other girls (or guys) to feel alone. We are here to be your friend. To let you know you’re not alone when you feel anxiety pulling at your heartstrings (and to talk about every other random thing that happens in life). We are a community… a thriving, loving, active community of people going through the same thing; we are girls with anxiety, here to give you the hug you need. #girlswanxiety
