Wondering?

[8250heinzrd]

Does anyone with anxiety find it hard to eat, and not hungry at all.  Food just does not appeal to me at all.  I eat, but not a lot.

[Janco]

Yes, but I had a feeling like a "lump" in my throat, and I could only drink soup for a time.

Luckily I beat anxiety.

congratulations! How long did you have anxiety, and what were your symptoms?

[8250heinzrd]

also wondering if anyone has a dull pain in their chest, and a burning sensation that comes and goes, whenever it wants to?

[Jodz]

Hi I go through stages of hardly eating a thing for weeks , gagging at the thought of food. Then bang I'm just so hungry all I want is food ?? Go figure 

[8250heinzrd in reply to Jodz]

I do the same thing. The thought of food  can gag me one day and the next be fine. Just weird.

I want to eat but I get heart palpitations afterwards so I'm scared to eat I HATE anxiety! 

[8250heinzrd in reply to Twinkle333]

Anxiety is a curse. I get burning in my chest and dull pains that can last a while. Happens when it wants without even being anxious. Also get twitching in the chest area.

That's exactly what I say,  have you had any tests?  It may be a gastric problem I have gallstones and gastritis so u get thise kinda symptoms with that I can have severe chest pain but it's due to my stomach 

[8250heinzrd in reply to Twinkle333]

I do not have any stomach problems. I have not had any tests.  The only thing my doctor wants to do, is put me on antidepressants. Not happening. 

[Twinkle333 in reply to 8250heinzrd]

Oh right don't you want to rely or tablets or do you have a phobia? I myself have a fear of meds but I do take them only because if I hadn't have started when I did I don't think I'd be alive now 

[8250heinzrd in reply to Twinkle333]

Twinkle333. What type of meds are you on?  What were your symptoms that you need to be on the meds for. Do they help those symptoms? 

[Twinkle333 in reply to 8250heinzrd]

I'm take pregablin it's an anti epileptic and pain meds really Hut works well for anxiety also as it works on the nervous system, well when I first started taking them they really wer a wonder drug I was at a stage with anxiety that I was hospitalised being really poorly and very under weight I was put on pregablin and with in two weeks I felt amazing after having 20/30 pain attacks a day before that,  I gained weight and left hospital after 5 weeks I can honestly say of I'd not taken them I'd have been dead by now I've had other drugs that didn't work half as well in the past so I stick with these now 

[Debbweb01]

Me too! Listen to doc and take meds

[8250heinzrd]

Does anyone ever just get a pain without being anxious? I feel I get that a lot. Just wondering if this is still from anxiety?
