“Fun” thing about having anxiety: having to convince Indian parents that anxiety at my brain’s level isn’t the anxiety ‘everyone has’
Dear God, I'm not sure if it's even possible to have that talk with my parents either but well, it just sorta sucks that Indian parents don't really get mental health,,,

Right? I feel like no matter what I say, my parents’ reply would be either “we/someone else had it worse” or “everyone deals with it”

Exactly. Like, it's hard to bring this up since the culture revolving around mental issues is so different in India and they did have very difficult lives so it just sorta invalidates my feelings. It makes me feel like I didn't "earn" my anxiety or any other negative emotion.
