Anxious

[Yumaris]

I feel like I’m about to have an anxiety attack... my heart is palpitating so fast and my arm feels heavy.

Hang in there you are going to be okay just take deep breaths and talk us through it friend we are here for you

[Yumaris in reply to Poland1590]

I get blamed for everything... our car is acting up... my spouse is complaining and i feel like he’s blaming me for it bc i got into a couple accidents a few years ago .... feel like throwing up... I’m not good enough for him.... i failed everyone in my life

[Poland1590 in reply to Yumaris]

Just take deep breaths, its okay to have an accident, people get blamed, life is not perfect but do NOT put the failures of other people on yourself you do not deserve to bear that weight, it is not your fault

[Yumaris in reply to Poland1590]

Just too much stress, resentment in this house

[Yumaris in reply to Poland1590]

This has been my whole life.. since a child ... I feel like such a burden... I try to stay strong for my son.. it’s exhausting... he has been noticing

[Poland1590 in reply to Yumaris]

You have to just relax nd stay calm and positve, if you keep on doing that the vibes of the house will eventually follow I promise

I felt like this last night lots of pressure in my head as well..didn't sleep till 2am and was awake at 5 blur....my sleeps been good last mth.hate sleepless nights due to anxiety..we've just put our house on the market and I'm awaiting an appt for my daughter to have op on her back..she's autistic so I know she will be scared...to much going on in the mind..just remember anxiety cannot and will not kill you....💕 I suffered horrific panic attacks last year was always in a and e...my daughter said my mum has 999 on speed dial..I had to laugh..I was petrified thou..staff were brilliant with me..panic attacks are often triggered by repressed memories and emotions ...I'm a lot better than last year so it does slowly pass

[Yumaris in reply to Chappy12]

Your daughter will be fine! My prayers are with you! Good luck with your house

Good morning Yumaris, can you tell us something good about your family? How did you and your husband meet? Is there something you can share that you enjoy doing? What is your favorite color?

[Yumaris in reply to countryboy1]

I have a complicated relationship with my family. I don’t see them or talk to them. I met my husband at college, we had a class together. At that time, he helped me alot w my family situation. I was in a very dark place. We have been married for over 20 years. I enjoy baking especially cake pops. I make them alot ... it’s my therapy. I either make them to gift or sell. Blue is my favorite color. I have the most wonderful son ever!

[countryboy1 in reply to Yumaris]

Well your wonderful son had to have had a wonderful mom to come from!!! Are u in therapy now? You mentioned that you were in darkness back in college when you met your husband, perhaps that is where your therapist will start. Describing and understanding that old darkness may give clues to where you are today.

Btw Blue is my favorite color as well.

[Yumaris in reply to countryboy1]

Ty so sweet! No, I’m not doing therapy. Honestly I haven’t found one I like and left sessions even more angry and upset. I’ve been battling depression and anxiety since a child. When I met my husband things elevated at my parents (mostly mom).

I don’t like taking meds... I never feel right and I’m afraid of them. I get to the point in which i pass out when i have a real bad anxiety attack.

[countryboy1 in reply to Yumaris]

Not all therapist use meds. I would highly recommend you start and give the therapist say 5 sessions before you consider stopping. I think it will help you
