I have recently been dealing with what I believe is anxiety for the past week or so. I have been stressing over my job situation it is not the most ideal, but I have to have job in order to deal with the fact I need health insurance for my illness. I feel like I have been feeling crazy, the mornings before work I tend to lay in bed catatonic even though I have been sleeping more than 7 hours. It has becoming very debilitating, I have tried breathing exercises and counting to 10 slowly as well.
I like to believe that I have acknowledged the causes which is stress from my job, separation anxiety from my partner. I have a follow up with my doctor but I don't think my medicines are the one causing this to go out of wack. I am not a long time sufferer I believe I get them every now and then but this time has been such a long span it is really scary to me.

I would suggest that you talk to your doctor about it, and look into seeing a therapist. Sometimes anxiety takes a while to fully manifest itself, so even if it didn't used to be a problem, it can become one. Finding people who support you is a big part of getting through anxiety.
Thank you so much for taking the time to read and reply. I’ll be seeing my physician tomorrow to ask him if my mess are the ones causing the issues. Last night I was fine and then this morning it resumed, but I assumed it was because of work.
I am in the same boat as you. I was living in a constant panic attack and that was my norm. I went to treatment; I was told that my job situation would get better. I am working 70+ hours a week. My daughter moved in with her dad and step-mom. I think my son is only staying because he worries about me. I made time to get my resume written by a professional service. I have it now but I have no idea how I am going to search for something else...I have lost a child over my job. Please do not let your job kill your soul. Mine is severely wounded....I have to figure out a way to make a change. You can do it, too!
Thank you so much for your words of kindness and advice. I totally agree with you, I am trying my best to not let the job kill my soul. I am so so sorry about your situation. I must say you’re far more resilient and stronger than you give yourself credit for. I would say start with LinkedIn and several other sites like Indeed. Trust me it takes a while but there’s a small glimmer of joy that comes from applying and on my worse days those get me through. You’re not alone in this fight. I believe it will be better for the both of us soon! Best of luck!
