Yes and im sorry you do too but that is normal the tingling is from hyperventilating just calm down I know how hard it is trust me but it will pass and I wish there was an answer for us with anxiety

Hi Pink. I'm sorry you are having a rough day. Keep your head up, you are strong and can get through this, stay positive. I hope you feel better soon.

Hi petita

That's sweet of you.

I was laying down with my little one and I actually fell asleep laying down. For days I've been sleeping propped up with lots of pillows as my anxiety has been so bad at night that was the only way I could sleep. If the dog didn't need to go out I would have stayed there all night because now that I'm up my anxiety is acting up :(

Why can't I just feel normal

I know Pink sometimes I want to scream'please make me normal,why do I have to suffer with this anxiety?'. But we just have to accept that we do I guess. Sometimes I think is it my health symptoms that make me anxious or the anxiety that makes me feel rough/ill? Feeling for you Pink you are certainly not alone,hugs xx

Thank you for the reply Sam and thank you for caring. Sometimes I feel like all I do is complain on here but I'm just so tired of feeling this way and I know we're all tired of it and want it to go away.

I actually slept good compared to how I have been so that's today's positive :)

Hope your doing well

Just imagine how someone not suffering like us might think about us, if they got to this site? Probably understandably.

Just get over it, they'd say. Get on with it. We all wish that were possible.

They just don't know, do they.

Exactly they don't understand it. I've had people tell me well just don't think about it or when I'm having an attack they are like what brought it on. That's the thing nothing has to happen to bring it on and my girls dad tells me I'm running from it. How can I run from it. This is who I am. I can't escape my body.

Donna,

Well I understand. My son and daughter's mum is starting to understand and she suffers from depression! You'd think she would already understand. But she's only ever known me healthy and I don't think I've had hardly a cold since I've known her, and now this.

Try and relax and get some sleep, it must be getting late over there.

I'm leaving for work now, talk to you later.

Peter.

Yes I know you understand and it certainly makes it more difficult when the ones your close to dont understand.

How old are your kids?

Hyperventilating. Happened to my daughter i the middle of her exam on Friday, got her to GP and was told to sit down first - the lower the better (floor) , slow breathing down, even if you have to hold your breath a little, and rest after when recovered. Tingling, numbness and body shaking should go away, . This time she didn't pass out.

She was well prepared for her exam, looking forward to it, (singing).

Good luck.

Sorry to hear your daughter is suffering too.

How long has she had anxiety?

PoppyRose profile image
PoppyRose in reply to Pink1181

Hello Pink1181, thank you for your concerns.

She has an eating disorder and I personally think it is linked to it , but then there is stress linked to this too. So we're really not sure which condition caused it to happen. I doubt it was stress as she was very well prepared, loves and was looking forward to her exam (believe it or not! lol)

Normally she thrives on 'sticky' situations and enjoys the challenge it brings. Not a stressed person at all. ??? Now she has only just left home I will be monitoring it all very closely. ;)

Best wishes.

Hello poppyrose

I have to say she seems like a happy go lucky girl which is awesome and I think that's great she knows how to handle any situation.

Seems to me your doing an amazing job raising her so she's going to be just fine.

Hang in there. Both of you.

My little girl wants to color so I will talk with you later :)

That's good to hear. Yup I'm ok. Just get fed up with the unpredictability of anxiety. Feel great sometimes terrible other times! Think you know all about that lol! It's so nice to hear of a fellow sufferer having a good day. I think 'that could be me tomorrow.' Anyway hugs xx

Hey Sam

Yup I've had a pretty good day. No attacks was a bit anxious tho :(

And for sure I know how that goes. I have more bad days than good which is terrible. I'm starting lesson 3 of my program today. Fingers crossed this will work for me.

Hang in there. Chat later :)
