My anxiety and how it affects life

[MoodieC]

Hi everyone, this is my first post. I am in desperate need for someone to talk to. I feel as though I am alone. I have severe anxiety and I can barely get through my day. I have a partner and I love them dearly, but lately I’ve been feeling uninterested in everything and it’s making me panic because I love _____ so much. I just want to get better. It’s this feeling I get in my chest like my whole world is falling apart even though nothing is wrong. If anyone else is going through soemthing similar please write me. I need a friend.

Hello there I can certainly relate. I feel like anxiety completley controls my life. Even though I have a great job and outwardly I seem okay; inside I'm terrified. Have you tried yoga and meditation plus calm music.

Hello, I feel for you, anxiety is so painful and numbing. First thing I would do is talk to your Dr. or find a mental health professional. I see my Dr. who has me on Lorazapam and zoloft for depression and anxiety. I also have a therapist who is a great help. Do not suffer any longer without getting help, I wish you well and am here to talk to, a fellow sufferer. Love Sprinkle 1.....xx

My boyfriend just recently broke up with me because of my constant worries. He was my best friend and we’d been together for 3 years and each and every day the pain and anxiety drove us apart. I’m so broken about. The one person I felt would always have as a constant/break from the cycle is gone. And it’s so hard to tell him how I feel. He won’t even take my calls. I know how you feel but keep those you love close. Let them know how you’re feeling but don’t let it drive a wedge between you guys. Don’t take a second for granted with them. Take baby steps each day. Let yourself be happy with your partner.

Hello MoodieC, You are welcome to the forum. Am sorry to hear of what you are going through. You are not alone dear. I can understand what you are going through. Have you tried counselling, therapy or talking to your doctor about this?

On your own you can try taking deep breathing exercise, going for walks and exercising. For me my faith and prayer has helped me a lot. I use my support group when I need to destress or distract my thought and imagination. I read and listen to resources about anxiety and how others are dealing with this. This a great place to get information. You can check this out when you are less busy bit.ly/2mFxWoz . You can send me a message if you need someone to chat with. Keep hope alive.
