Help with Anxiety

[Mmelissa]

Hey I'm Struggling with anxiety and don't know what to do. It has gotten to the point that I cannot sleep I'm scared I won't wake up or that I can't breathe I keep feeling numbness in my arm shoulder. Every one tells me to try to not think about it but nothing is working

Hi Melissa! What methods have you already tried and what methods are you willing to try? Not thinking about anxiety- as you've discovered- doesn't really help. It's kind of like not thinking about diabetes, or any physiological condition. Anyway, if you aren't already in counseling, I would strongly recommend finding someone to talk to about what you've been experiencing. If you can't afford counseling, consider calling social work in your state or county and finding out when social services you're entitled to.
